Increase in soil nematode abundance due to fertilization was consistent across moisture regimes in a paddy rice–upland wheat system

Nematodes exert top-down control on the microbially-mediated processes of decomposition
and nutrient cycling due to their position in the soil food web. Fertilization of agricultural soils
can increase substrates for nematode populations, but whether the nematode community
response to fertilization is consistent under anaerobic and aerobic soil conditions is not
known. Our study investigated how soil nematode abundance and community structure
responded to fertilization of a double-cropping system with paddy rice, representing …
