World of earthworms with pesticides and insecticides

Interdisciplinary Toxicology, 2019
Earthworms are important organisms in soil communities and are known for sustaining the life of the soil. They are used as a model organism in environmental risk assessment of chemicals and soil toxicology. Soil provides physical and nutritive support to

Examining the multi‐disciplinary origins of biophobia towards threatening and non‐threatening wildlife in a highly urbanised city in China

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Urbanisation is reshaping how people experience wildlife, reducing our shared spaces with local biodiversity. Fewer opportunities for human–wildlife interactions weaken our emotional attachments to nature and precipitate a loss of species knowledge and familiarity.

When plastisphere and drilosphere meet: Earthworms facilitate microbiome and nutrient turnover to accelerate biodegradation of agricultural plastic films

Environment International
Agricultural plastic mulching films have been an environmental concern for decades. The effects of the interactions between the anthropogenic plastisphere and other soil biospheres, particularly that of earthworms, on the fate of plastics remain poorly ...

Earthworms (Lumbricus terrestris L.) Mediate the Fertilizing Effect of Frass

Agronomy, 2020
With the forecasted dramatic growth of insect rearing in the near future, frass (insect excreta) has been increasingly considered a sustainable resource for managing plant nutrition in cropping systems and a promising alternative to conventional ...

Detecting microplastics in organic-rich materials and their potential risks to earthworms in agroecosystems

, 2023
Microplastics (MPs) are a major emerging contaminant in agroecosystems, due to their significant resistance to degradation in terrestrial environments.

Toxicity of Four Common Environmental Chemicals Across Caenorhabditis elegans Life Stages Supporting the One Health Concept

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pesticides and pharmaceuticals are among the most common chemical groups in waterbodies and soils, and their universal distribution raises concerns about potential adverse effects on nontarget organisms and humans. Reproductive output disruption is of particular concern, as it transposes effects from the individual to the next generations at ...

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Aporrectodea earthworms respond to salt and organic matter levels in captive and free-choice mesocosms

Soil Organisms
As popular soil health indicators, earthworms play a role in soil assessments, especially when it comes to salinity. Salinity influences soil chemistry, structure, hydrology, and biological activity.
