Trophic groups in the soil
Trophic group means "feeding group". Common and scientific names are given, with genus and species if known; "sp." means the genus but not species is identified. The position of the images does not necessarily correspond to their usual location on roots and in the soil. Move your mouse around to identify the different organisms.
