“…This is apparent in the stark interspecific differences between collembola grazing effects (Tordoff et al, 2008). Moreover, variation between invertebrate orders often outweighs that within orders.…”

“…Generally, invertebrate activity is thought to stimulate litter decomposition (Bardgett, 2005) although, as with enzyme production, few studies have distinguished between direct and indirect grazer effects. When restricted to feeding on extra-resource mycelia growing in soil, collembola affect the abilities of fungi to decompose wood resources (Tordoff et al, 2008). These effects vary between fungal species; during grazing, H. fasciculare showed increased rates of wood decay, whereas the opposite was true of R. bicolor (Crowther et al, 2011b).…”

“…É perceptível a importância dos insetos sociais da família Formicidae, não apenas por contribuírem expressivamente no total efetivo de artrópodos (Costa, 2002), mas por realizarem importantes funções no ambiente, como melhorar o arejamento e a infiltração da água no solo, fragmentar os detritos vegetais e incorporar a matéria orgânica ao solo (Souza et al, 2008;Silva et al, 2012a Os grupos Coleoptera (6,65 %) e Collembola (14,54 %), apesar de menos expressivos, são também importantes organismos do sistema decompositor, podendo atuar tanto de forma direta quanto indireta. Segundo Moço et al (2005), esses grupos de organismos podem comportar-se nos ecossistemas como saprófagos, fragmentando os resíduos vegetais, ou como predadores, alimentando-se de outros organismos; o grupo Collembola desenvolve a atividade predatória de microrganismos (Toledo, 2003;Tordoff et al, 2008), denominada microfagia, e possui também a fitofagia como hábito alimentar (Souza et al, 2008).…”

“…Outro grupo que também esteve presente de forma expressiva, em ambas as estações, foram os Micrófagos (Quadro 2), representados pelos Collembola, que desenvolvem a atividade predatória de microrganismos (Tordoff et al, 2008). Além disso, influenciam indiretamente na fertilidade do solo, produzem enzimas e fragmentam a matéria orgânica (Berg et al, 2004;Yang et al, 2012).…”

“…The concept of fractals has attracted the interest of scientists in many fields (Feder, 1988). A huge number of papers related to the word 'fractal' has been published, spanning fields ranging from physical geometry, such as surface structure of sea beds (Golubev et al, 1987), non-equilibrium growth phenomena (Shibkov et al, 2001) and distribution of intervals between earthquakes (Dargahi-Noubary, 1997), to ecology that involves fungal structure (Tordoff et al, 2007) and power law relationship between the area of a quadrate and the structure of peat systems (Sławinski et al,2002). Even in cosmology with the study of the structure of star clusters and galaxies, the big bang theory of the origin of the universe and also in developmental biology portrayed by lung branching patterns, heart rhythms and structure of neurons (Hastings & Sugihara, 1993).…”
