Soil Gamasina from savanna and ReviTec site of Ngaoundéré (Adamawa, Cameroon): abundance and species diversity

Abstract: Soil Gamasina of Central African savanna are little known. In our study, Gamasina were assessed for a high Guinean savanna and for selected treatments of a ReviTec site for the rehabilitation of degraded soil, Ngaoundéré region (Adamawa, Cameroon). The experimental site was established in 2012. Four years later, in 2016, four sampling campaigns during the rainy season were undertaken (May, June, July, August). The investigated treatments were: (1) compost + mycorrhiza (cpmy), (2) compost + biochar (cpbc), (3) compost + biochar + bokashi (cpbcbo). The controls were: ReviTec control (ctrl1) and adjacent savanna (sav). Gamasina were extracted from 0 – 10 cm soil using a modified Berlese-Tullgren extractor and identified microscopically at the morphospecies level. Most of the thirty-four species belonging to fourteen genera and eight families seem to be new to science; they are treated as morphospecies with preliminary names.  In comparison to savanna and control, the investigated Revi.... https://www.soil-organisms.org/index.php/SO/article/view/62
