Social insects, ie ants, bees, wasps and termites, are key components of ecological
communities, and are important ecosystem services (ESs) providers. Here, we review the …

摘要采用静态箱⁃ 气相色谱法, 对西双版纳热带次生林崖豆藤群落中的蚁巢土壤N2O
排放通量的季节动态进行定位研究, 分析蚂蚁筑巢引起土壤碳氮库及温湿度等土壤性质变化对 …

Many social insect species build nests, which differ from the surrounding environment and
are often occupied by specific organismal communities. These organisms may interact …

In this study, we investigated the bacterial and fungal microbiomes of the ant Formica
exsecta (Hymenoptera, Formicidae), and assessed whether the microbial communities …

Soil macro-invertebrates, the so-called soil macrofauna, belong to different functional groups
such as ecosystem engineers, detritivores, root herbivores, and predators. They have often …

The microbiome of built structures has considerable influence over an inhabitant's well-
being, yet the vast majority of research has focused on human-built structures. Ants are well …

Microbes are ubiquitous and often occur in functionally and taxonomically complex
communities. Unveiling these community dynamics is one of the main challenges of …

In a subarctic climate, the seasonal shifts in temperature, precipitation, and plant cover drive
the temporal changes in the microbial communities in the topsoil, forcing soil microbes to …

Little is known about the role of ant colonies in regulating the distribution and diversity of soil
microbial communities across large spatial scales. Here, we conducted a survey across> …

The long-standing association between insects and microorganisms has been especially
crucial to the evolutionary and ecological success of social insect groups. Notably, research …
