Proceedings...

The aim is to evaluate the specific contribution of the soil microflora and of the different function soil fauna groups to the decompostion of organic matter and the resulting nutrient supply to the plants. Several methods for the study of the soil fauna and microflora have been adapted to neotropical conditions on the base of preliminary tests.  aagroforestry  abiomass  amultiple cropping  asoil fauna  atropical rain forests  aBiomassa  aCultivo Multiplo  aFauna Edáfica  aFloresta Tropical Úmida  aSerapilheira  aAgrofloresta  aAmazonas  aBrasil  aLitter forest  aManaus1 aGASPAROTTO, L.1 aFORSTER, B.1 aFRANKLIN, E.1 aGARCIA, M.1 aHARADA, A.1 aHOFER, H.1 aLUIZAO, F.1 aLUIZAO, R.1 aMARTIUS, C.1 aMORAIS, J.
