Tree litter leachates have stronger influence than litter itself on Folsomia candida fitness  Tree litter leachates have stronger effect on F. candida fitness than grass litter due to their content in secondary metabolites  Soluble phenolic compounds released by litter leaching can drive F. candida fitness  Litter compounds leaching appears to be an important process in abovegroundbelowground interactions *Highlights (for review)
