Transforming morphology into ecology: Functional trait-based estimation of biomass and carbon budget in predatory nematodes (Nematoda: Mononchida)

Predatory nematodes in the order Mononchida play a key biological regulation role in soil food webs but remain underexplored in terms of their ecosystem functions. Estimating biomass using morphological traits provides a practical method for assessing their contribution to carbon dynamics. This stud...
