摘要
Effects of Collembola (Protaphorura fimata) on the development of wheat (Triticum aestivum) and the reproduction of aphids (Rhopalosiphum padi) were investigated at different soil nutrient concentrations in a laboratory experiment. Fertilization with N and NPK increased biomass and nitrogen content of wheat, aphid reproduction and abundance of Collembola. Presence of Collembola tended to decrease biomass of leaves and ears, and caused a delayed ear production of the plants. Aphid reproduction was significantly reduced in the presence of Collembola (-14%) and most pronounced in fertilizer treatments. We suggest that the reduction of aphid reproduction is caused by Collembola-mediated changes in resource allocation and growth of wheat. (c) 2007 Gesellschaft fur Okologie.
