Wireworms (larvae of the click beetle, Elateridae) are a significant agricultural pest, causing crop damage and reducing yields globally. Owing to the complex nature and opacity of the soil environment, research to investigate wireworm behaviour in situ has been scarce. X‐ray computed tomography (CT) has previously been demonstrated as a powerful tool to independently visualise the 3D root system architecture, macroinvertebrate movement and distribution of burrow systems in soil, but not simultaneously within the same sample. In this study, we apply X‐ray CT to visualise and quantify wireworms, their burrow systems and the root architecture of two contrasting crop species (Hordeum vulgare and Zea mays ) in a soil pot experiment scanned at different time intervals.

使用3D X射线计算机断层扫描跟踪随时间推移土壤中的线虫穴居行为。

线虫（the虫的幼虫，ate科）是一种重要的农业害虫，对农作物造成损害并在全球范围内降低产量。由于土壤环境的复杂性和不透明性，用于现场研究线虫行为的研究很少。X射线计算机断层扫描（CT）先前已被证明是一种强大的工具，可以独立地可视化3D根系体系结构，大型无脊椎动物的活动和土壤中洞穴系统的分布，但不能同时显示在同一样品中。在这项研究中，我们应用X射线CT来可视化和量化线虫，它们的洞穴系统以及两种对比作物（大麦和玉米）的根系结构）在不同时间间隔扫描的土锅实验中。
