Abstract

In 1991, at the launch of a national symposium devoted to soil structure, the Australian Society of Soil Science invited Professor John Letey to deliver a keynote address, which was later published in the society's journal. In his lecture, he shared the outcome of his reflexion about what the assessment of soil structure should amount to, in order to produce useful insight into the functioning of soils. His viewpoint was that the focus should be put on the openings present in the structure, rather than on the chunks of material resulting from its mechanical dismantlement. In the present article, we provide some historical background for Letey's analysis, and try to explain why it took a number of years for the paradigm shift that he advocated to begin to occur. Over the last decade, his perspective that soil structure needs to be characterised via nondestructive methods appears to have gained significant momentum, which is likely to increase further in the near future, as we take advantage of recent technological advances. Other valuable lessons that one can derive from Letey's pioneering article relate to the extreme value for everyone, even neophytes, to constantly ask questions about where research on given topics is heading, what its goals are, and whether the methods that are used at a certain time are optimal. Keywords: aggregate stability, computed tomography, earthworms, micromorphology, soil fauna, soil functions, soil image analysis, soil microorganisms, soil measuring, soil organic matter., Introduction From the 1950s to the 1980s, the topic of soil structure attracted considerable attention among soil scientists in Australia, and the scientific literature contains many frequently-cited contributions on the [...]

Abstract

We investigated the potential of earthworm casts to emit N2O, hypothesizing that emission levels are influenced by the species of earthworm and their ecological category. This study examined casts a broad taxonomic and ecological coverage of tropical earthworms, i.e., 16 different species across four ecological categories. We quantified the potential nitrification, N2O production and consumption as well as the abundance of N-related microbial functional groups, including ammonia-oxidizers, nitrite-reducers, and distinct clades of N2O-reducers, along with casts chemical properties to determine cast organic matter quality and substrate availability. Earthworm casts exhibited significantly higher concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, and nitrate compared to control soil, while humification index were lower. A negative correlation between humification index and potential N₂O production suggests that more labile substrates in the casts promote higher N₂O flux. Net potential N₂O emissions were higher in the casts of 7 out of 16 species compared to control soil, and all species' casts showed higher gross potential N₂O production, with substantial interspecific variability. The abundance of nitrite and N₂O reducers was significantly higher in the casts and positively correlated with potential N₂O emissions. Casts from epigeic and mixed categories displayed higher carbon and nitrogen content, abundance of nitrite and N₂O reducers, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, and potential N₂O production compared to anecic and endogeic categories, which exhibited higher values of humification index. Structural equation modeling indicated that gross potential N₂O production was primarily explained by the abundance of nitrite reducers and substrate availability indicators such as humification index and nitrate concentration. Our study demonstrates significant interspecific variability in N₂O potential emissions from a broad range of tropical earthworm casts, influenced by species feeding behavior, microbial communities, and substrate availability.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Environmentally‐friendly crop protection practices are needed to enhance the sustainability of current agricultural systems. This is crucial in orchards which are extensively treated to impair various pests, at the expense of natural enemies. However, the effect of a shift towards softer pest management on the beneficial arthropod community is poorly documented. Earwigs (Dermaptera: Forficulidae) and spiders (Araneae) are relevant groups to assess such effects because they are highly sensitive to agricultural practices. They were monitored for 6 and 4 years, respectively, in apple orchards under three pest management regimes: Organic, Low‐input and Conventional, with pest management being switched during the survey from a broad‐spectrum insecticide schedule to mating disruption in the latter one, and more selective compounds in all orchards. RESULTS: The survey displayed that earwig abundance (mainly Forficula auricularia) that was initially very low in the Conventional orchard (annual mean 0.5–1.7 earwigs per shelter in the 2010–2012 period) increased to the same level as that of Low‐input and Organic orchards (over 10 earwigs per shelter) in the same year that changes in pest management occurred. The epigeal and arboreal spider communities were not responsive, and no recovering was observed 4 years after change in practices. CONCLUSION: Predatory arthropod communities are differently affected over time by changes in pest management, most probably due to their biology (dispersion, reproduction rate, susceptibility to pesticides etc.). This outlines the importance of documenting the time required to recover after perturbations and build a natural enemy community to enhance pest control in a win‐win perspective. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract

Recent research on earthworms has shed light on their global distribution, with high alpha richness in temperate zones and high beta diversity in tropical areas. Climate and agricultural practices, notably plowing and conservation methods, were shown to strongly influence earthworm communities. However, data gaps persist in regions like North Australia, Asia, Russia, and Africa, limiting our understanding of earthworm distribution and their responses to global changes. Understanding changes within earthworm communities is crucial given their profound influence on ecosystem functions such as soil structure, nutrient dynamics, and plant growth. Classifying earthworms into functional groups remains complex, prompting the adoption of a trait-based approach for a more comprehensive classification, but there is no representative global data on earthworm traits. To address these knowledge gaps, the Soil BON Earthworm initiative aims at creating a global community of earthworm experts, standardizing sampling methods and databases, collecting time series data on earthworm communities, and modeling future earthworm distributions under different climate scenarios. The initiative aims to address key questions, such as the dynamic of earthworm communities over time and their response to environmental factors and anthropogenic influences, their impact on ecosystem functioning, and the redefinition of functional groups based on traits. The consortium invites researchers worldwide to contribute to this endeavor and encourages the resampling of study sites, to expand currently limited time series datasets. To facilitate data collection, standardized protocols and data templates are proposed, ensuring data quality and interoperability. Furthermore, the initiative intends to make use of citizen science in expanding observations and improving taxonomic coverage, highlighting platforms like iNaturalist for community engagement.

Abstract

Global changes call for more nature‐based solutions, especially in nature conservation involving ecological restoration. Current methods essentially based on civil engineering are both expensive and costly in non‐renewable energy consumption and pollution terms. The non‐sustainability of these techniques is leading to the direct use of certain species to restore degraded ecosystems. Ants, because of their central role in ecosystem functioning and their occurrence on almost all terrestrial ecosystems, are promising candidates for environmental monitoring and such ecological restoration projects. We provide here a narrative review of the ecological functions performed by ants, and we take stock of how ants are currently considered in passive and active restoration. We then propose a trait‐based approach to facilitate their use by practitioners in future restoration projects. We list and discuss both life‐history traits relevant for environmental monitoring and functional traits known to affect abiotic (physical and chemical soil properties) and biotic (plant and fauna communities) components.

Abstract

measurements. To address this, we conducted a two-year study using large lysimeters in an ecotron facility, continuously measuring ecosystem-level CO 2 , N 2 O, and H 2 O fluxes. We investigated the impact of endogeic and anecic earthworms on GHG emissions and ecosystem water use efficiency (WUE) in an agricultural setting. Although we observed transient stimulations of carbon fluxes in the presence of earthworms, cumulative fluxes over the study indicated no significant increase in CO 2 emissions. Endogeic earthworms marginally reduced N 2 O emissions during the wheat culture (-44.6%), but this effect was not sustained throughout the experiment. No consistent effects on ecosystem evapotranspiration or WUE were found. Our study suggests that earthworms do not significantly contribute to GHG emissions over a two-year period in experimental conditions that mimic an agricultural setting. These findings highlight the need for realistic experiments enabling continuous GHG measurements.

Abstract

Earthworms have a prominent role in supporting soil functioning and thus in providing key services to humanity. Their beneficial role relates to effects on soil structure, carbon and nutrient cycling as well as the soil microbial community. Optimizing the role of earthworms in agricultural systems is therefore crucial for maintaining or improving soil quality and supporting a more sustainable, circular agriculture. Here, we summarize established knowledge on the role of earthworms in agronomy; present novel insights from the past decades; and identify key knowledge gaps to be addressed in the future to fully benefit from earthworms in our agricultural soils. We start by discussing how earthworms affect basic soil processes through their effects on soil structure, microbial communities and biogeochemical cycles. Further, we show how as a result of these changes, earthworms indirectly affect plant growth, the soil greenhouse gas balance and play a role in remediation of contaminated arable soils. We further address one of the paradoxes of earthworm ecology: that they are often not present in the soils where they are most needed. We subsequently discuss potential solutions to this paradox. Finally, we identify 10 key questions that need to be addressed in the near future. In our view, recognizing that earthworms are not a stand-alone solution to improving the sustainability of cropping systems, but an essential piece of the puzzle is crucial for optimizing the benefits they offer in agronomic systems. By managing our earthworm populations well, we manage our soils well.
