Comparative responses of termite functional and taxonomic diversity to land-use change
Original language description
1. While it is clear that land-use change significantly impacts the taxonomic dimension of soil biodiversity, how the functional dimension responds to land-use change is less well understood. 2. This study examined how the transformation of primary forests into rubber tree monocultures impacts individual termite species and how this change is reflected in termite taxonomic and functional alpha-diversity (within site) and beta-diversity (among sites). 3. Overall, individual species responded strongly to land-use change, whereby only 11 of the 27 species found were able to tolerate both habitats. These differences caused a 27% reduction in termite taxonomic richness and reduced taxonomic beta-diversity in rubber plantations compared with primary forests. The study also revealed that the forest conversion led to a shift in some termite species with smaller body size, shorter legs and smaller mandibular traits. Primary forests exhibited higher functional richness and functional beta-diversity of termite
