Decrease in faeces removal and soil bioturbation by dung beetles in genetically modified maize plantations in southern Brazil

2023-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Ecosystem functions are the product of the interaction between living and non‐living components, providing goods and services that satisfy the needs of humans and other organisms, directly or indirectly. Dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae, Scarabaeinae) contribute to soil improvement through their feeding and reproductive behaviour by removing and burying faeces and thus participating in processes associated w...
