土壤重金属向节肢动物的传递及影响

Transfer of heavy metals from soils to arthropods and their impacts on the arthropod populations

土壤中重金属可通过食物链传递至节肢动物,并在其体内累积。文章介绍影响重金属传递和积累的主要因子,及重金属对植食性、捕食性、寄生性、腐食性节肢动物种群及群落的影响情况。建议对影响传递与累积的机制开展深入研究,并重点从节肢动物群落生态学、行为学、生理学等角度开展更多工作。

Heavy metals in soils can be transferred to arthropods through trophic chains and accumulated in these animals. The paper reviews the major factors affecting their transfer to and accumulation in arthropods, and their impacts on arthropod herbivores, predators, parasitoids and detritivores at population and community levels. Despite the great advancement in this research area, further mechanisms responsible for metal transfer and accumulations are to be explored with emphasis on community ecology, behavior and physiology aspects of involved arthropods.
