    Human-induced inputs of nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) disrupt global biogeochemical cycles and life itself. And yet there is no consensus on whether micro- or macronutrients are the main drivers of soil community assemblages. Tropical forests allow us to trace the response of nutrients on highly weathered soils, where previous studies have already shown N and P limitation. To address this, we conducted an N, P and NP field fertilization experiment in two French Guiana tropical rainforests (the Nouragues and Paracou forests) to study the response of metabarcoded ground-dwelling Hexapoda communities to macronutrients, while also assessing the impact of micronutrient availability (calcium (Ca), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg) and sodium (Na)). We assessed the importance of these nutrients through their impact on the abundance, richness, and composition of ground hexapod communities using linear models, canonical correlation analyses and analyses of variance. Our findings revealed that experimental fertilization with nitrogen and/or phosphorous did not drive ground hexapod community structure. In contrast, Ca, Mg and Na were positively associated with hexapod abundance. Ca, K and Mg positively correlated with OTU richness. And Ca and Na shaped community composition. Our results argue against the widespread assumption that macronutrient imbalances drive ground-dwelling hexapods, and we suggest that micronutrients need much more attention to properly assess the impact of nutrient imbalances and excessive fertilization in soils.

    Communities of soil insects in tropical rainforests are among the richest and most complex, but the mechanisms structuring them remain mostly unknown. Identifying whether nutrient availability plays a relevant role in the assembly of these communities poses several challenges due to the diverse nutritional requirements of insects. We investigated the importance of nutrient availability accounting for the abundance, richness, and composition of soil insect communities in tropical rainforests. We sampled soil insects in 72 1‐m2 sampling points at two sites in French Guiana, counted all specimens, and characterized each assemblage using DNA metabarcoding. We then determined the importance of nutrient availability by measuring 19 nutrient concentrations and collected 18,000 specimens from 2634 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Despite an extraordinary diversity and spatial heterogeneity, the concentrations of sodium, potassium, and magnesium positively correlated with either the abundance or the richness of the communities. These micronutrients were also important predictors of the composition of the assemblages. However, we found different relationships when analyzing the data separately for Blattodea, Coleoptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, and Orthoptera, the most abundant insect orders with the most OTUs. Our results demonstrated that the availability of micronutrients played a large role in species selection during the assembly of the soil insect communities in these tropical rainforests, in contrast to the null impact of macronutrients. By accounting for the response at lower taxonomic levels, we argue that part of the unexplained variance might arise from contrastingly different responses to micronutrient availability among the most diverse orders. The high unexplained variance, however, also suggests that processes such as stochastic population drift and biotic interactions likely play complementary roles in structuring insect communities in the soils of tropical rainforests.
  • Different profiles of soil phosphorous compounds depending on tree species and availability of soil phosphorus in a tropical rainforest in French Guiana

    Background The availability of soil phosphorus (P) often limits the productivities of wet tropical lowland forests. Little is known, however, about the metabolomic profile of different chemical P compounds with potentially different uses and about the cycling of P and their variability across space under different tree species in highly diverse tropical rainforests. Results We hypothesised that the different strategies of the competing tree species to retranslocate, mineralise, mobilise, and take up P from the soil would promote distinct soil 31P profiles. We tested this hypothesis by performing a metabolomic analysis of the soils in two rainforests in French Guiana using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). We analysed 31P NMR chemical shifts in soil solutions of model P compounds, including inorganic phosphates, orthophosphate mono- and diesters, phosphonates, and organic polyphosphates. The identity of the tree species (growing above the soil samples) explained > 53% of the total variance of the 31P NMR metabolomic profiles of the soils, suggesting species-specific ecological niches and/or species-specific interactions with the soil microbiome and soil trophic web structure and functionality determining the use and production of P compounds. Differences at regional and topographic levels also explained some part of the the total variance of the 31P NMR profiles, although less than the influence of the tree species. Multivariate analyses of soil 31P NMR metabolomics data indicated higher soil concentrations of P biomolecules involved in the active use of P (nucleic acids and molecules involved with energy and anabolism) in soils with lower concentrations of total soil P and higher concentrations of P-storing biomolecules in soils with higher concentrations of total P. Conclusions The results strongly suggest “niches” of soil P profiles associated with physical gradients, mostly topographic position, and with the specific distribution of species along this gradient, which is associated with species-specific strategies of soil P mineralisation, mobilisation, use, and uptake.

    The warming of boreal ecosystems accelerates decomposition and increases nitrogen (N) availability. The impact of increased N on subarctic soil fauna communities, however, remains poorly understood. We investigated the response of soil hexapods to a N addition experiment in a subarctic grassland. We characterized the soil hexapod communities using environmental DNA metabarcoding and analyzed the levels of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved organic nitrogen (DON), microbial carbon (Cmic), and microbial nitrogen (Nmic). N addition increased DON and Nmic, while DOC and Cmic pools remained unchanged. Furthermore, N addition caused shifts in soil hexapod community compositional diversity between control and N plots in herbivore and microbivore taxa. The levels of DON and Nmic strongly correlated with these shifts, explaining 54% and 45% of the compositional variability, respectively. This study demonstrates a clear link between N availability and shifts in soil hexapod communities, associated to changes in microbial and dissolved N pools in subarctic grasslands.

    Biogeochemical niche (BN) hypothesis aims to relate species/genotype elemental composition with its niche based on the fact that different elements are involved differentially in distinct plant functions. We here test the BN hypothesis through the analysis of the 10 foliar elemental concentrations and 20 functional‐morphological of 60 tree species in a French Guiana tropical forest. We observed strong legacy (phylogenic + species) signals in the species‐specific foliar elemental composition (elementome) and, for the first time, provide empirical evidence for a relationship between species‐specific foliar elementome and functional traits. Our study thus supports the BN hypothesis and confirms the general niche segregation process through which the species‐specific use of bio‐elements drives the high levels of α‐diversity in this tropical forest. We show that the simple analysis of foliar elementomes may be used to test for BNs of co‐occurring species in highly diverse ecosystems, such as tropical rainforests. Although cause and effect mechanisms of leaf functional and morphological traits in species‐specific use of bio‐elements require confirmation, we posit the hypothesis that divergences in functional‐morphological niches and species‐specific biogeochemical use are likely to have co‐evolved.
  • Responses of soil hexapod communities to warming are mediated by microbial carbon and nitrogen in a subarctic grassland

    Warming in subarctic ecosystems will be two-fold higher compared to lower latitudes under current climate change projections. While the effects of warming in northern ecosystems on plants and microorganisms have been extensively studied, the responses of soil fauna have received much less attention, despite their important role in regulating key soil processes. We analyzed the response of soil hexapod communities in a subarctic grassland exposed to a natural geothermal gradient in Iceland with increases of +3 and + 6 °C above ambient temperature. We characterized hexapod communities using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding. We analyzed the amounts of microbial carbon (Cmic), microbial N (Nmic), dissolved organic C (DOC) and dissolved organic N (DON) and then assessed whether these variables could help to account for the compositional dissimilarity of ground hexapod communities across temperatures. The increases in soil temperature did lead to changes in the composition of hexapod communities. The compositional differences caused by +6 °C plots were correlated with a decrease in Cmic and Nmic, soil DOC and DON. Our results highlight the response of soil hexapods to warming, and their interaction with microbial biomass ultimately correlated with changes in the availabilities of soil C and N.
