摘要: In some areas of ecology and evolution, such as the behavioural many well-studied bird species, it is increasingly difficult to make surprising new discoveries. However, this not case in soil and/or microbial ecology. Two recent studies suggest that testate amoebae, a group unfamiliar most biologists, might play much larger role nutrient cycling than has hitherto been suspected.
