Project: BE-Basic I - DNA barcoding-based monitoring in soil

Definition of NORs (Normal Operating Ranges) for nematodes assemblages in agro-ecosystems. BE-Basic supports the development of clean, robust and competitive biobased chemicals, materials and energy industries, including responsible monitoring and control of healthy soil and water environments, on the basis of advanced genomics technologies and bioprocess engineering.

• Selective alteration of soil food web components by invasive giant goldenrod Solidago gigantea in two distinct habitat types
• Release of isothiocyanates does not explain the effects of biofumigation with Indian mustard cultivars on nematode assemblages
• Organic farming practices result in compositional shifts in nematode communities that exceed crop-related changes
• Feeding preference as a main determinant of microscale patchiness among terrestrial nematodes
