Abstract

Trait-based approaches are being increasingly adopted to understand species' ecological strategies and how organisms influence ecosystem function. Trait-based research on soil organisms, however, remains poorly developed compared with that for plants. The abundant and diverse soil nematodes are prime candidates to advance trait-based approaches belowground, but a unified trait framework to describe nematode ecological strategies and assess their linkages with ecosystem function is lacking. We categorized nematode traits as morphological, physiological, life history, and community clusters, and proposed the nematode economics spectrum (NES) to better understand nematode ecological strategies and their association with ecosystem function. We argue that bridging the NES and the plant economics spectrum will facilitate a more holistic understanding of ecosystem carbon and nutrient cycling under global change.

将线虫与生态系统功能联系起来:基于性状的框架。
人们越来越多地采用基于性状的方法来了解物种的生态策略以及生物如何影响生态系统的功能。然而,与植物研究相比,基于性状的土壤生物研究仍很落后。丰富多样的土壤线虫是在地下推进基于性状的方法的主要候选者,但目前还缺乏一个统一的性状框架来描述线虫的生态策略并评估其与生态系统功能的联系。我们将线虫性状分为形态、生理、生活史和群落群,并提出了线虫经济谱(NES),以更好地理解线虫生态策略及其与生态系统功能的关系。我们认为,连接线虫经济谱和植物经济谱将有助于更全面地了解全球变化下的生态系统碳和养分循环。

期刊介绍: Trends in Ecology & Evolution (TREE) is a comprehensive journal featuring polished, concise, and readable reviews, opinions, and letters in all areas of ecology and evolutionary science. Catering to researchers, lecturers, teachers, field workers, and students, it serves as a valuable source of information. The journal keeps scientists informed about new developments and ideas across the spectrum of ecology and evolutionary biology, spanning from pure to applied and molecular to global perspectives. In the face of global environmental change, Trends in Ecology & Evolution plays a crucial role in covering all significant issues concerning organisms and their environments, making it a major forum for life scientists.
