dc.description.abstractThe biodiversity of microorganisms is still not understood exactly because they are very small and diverse and it requires an intensive effort to examine them. In this study, we tested whether there were differences in species richness and species composition among six sampled habitats to understand the biodiversity pattern of bdelloid rotifers. To test habitat preferences of bdelloid rotifers, 90 samples were collected from six different habitats (soil, tree bark, one species of lichen (Lecanora muralis), and three species of moss (Grimmia pulvinata, Homalothecium lutescens, and Tortula ruralis)) in the village of Tasci in December 2008. We performed an analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by a Tukey honestly significant difference (HSD) test to understand whether species richness was significantly different among the six habitats. Analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) was used to test whether differences in species composition between habitats were higher than those between samples within each habitat. The results showed that species richness in each sample was significantly different among habitats (ANOVA: F-5,F-84 = 19.3, P < 0.0001) according to the Tukey HSD test. Differences in species composition between samples between habitats were significantly higher than differences in species composition between samples within each habitat (ANOSIM: R = 0.40, P = 0.001).en_US
