V. aEffects of the nematodes Acrobeloides sp. and Mesodiplogaster lheritieri on substrate utilization and nitrogen and phosphorus mineralization in soil. c1981 aRelease of nutrients by bacterial-feeding nematodes may result in increased nutrient avai- lability for plants. Effects of two species of bacterial-feeding nematodes on N and P mine- ralization and C- substrate utilization were examined in soil microcosms. Both nematodes increased the rate of 14C-labelled glucose C utilization and N and P mineralization after 10 d. However, after 65 d incubation, soluble C, Pi and NH1-N were similar in grazed and un- grazed systems. The bacterial grazers, although not directly affecting total decomposition, to maintain the dynamic nature of the nutrient cycles. asoil aNematóide aSolo aAcrobeloides sp aMesodiplogaster lheritieri aMineralizcao de nutriente aNematode aNutrient mineralisation1 aCOLEMAN, D.
