Description: Das Projekt "Nematodes as link between microbial and faunal food web" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Universität Berlin (Humboldt-Univ.), Institut für Biologie, Arbeitsgruppe Ökologie durchgeführt. The proposed project examines the nematode fauna at the two field experiments 'Long-term recalcitrant C input' and 'Carbon flow via the herbivore and detrital food chain'. A gradient from resource rich to deeper oligotrophe habitats, i.e. from high to low diverse food webs, is investigated. The impact of resource availability and quality (recalcitrant versus labile) and presence or absence of living plants (rhizosphere versus detritusphere) on the nematode population are assessed. Insight into micro-food web structure is gained by application of the nematode faunal analysis concept, based on the enrichment, structure and channel index. In laboratory model systems carbon flux rates for food web links are determined between bacteria/fungi and their nematode grazers for dominant taxa in the arable field. Further, carbon leakage from plant roots induced by herbivore nematode is studied as link between root and bacterial energy channels. By using 13C/12C stable isotope probing (FA-SIP) fatty acids serve as major carbon currency. Coupling qualitative and quantitative data on nematode field populations, with carbon flow via biomarker fatty acids in microorganisms and grazers will allow to connect microbial and faunal food web, and to directly link nematode functional groups with specific processes in the soil carbon cycle.
