Asymmetrical hybridization and gene flow between Eisenia andrei and E. fetida lumbricid earthworms [PDF]
Uniformly pigmented Eisenia andrei (Ea) and striped E. fetida (Ef) lumbricid earthworms are hermaphrodites capable of self-fertilization, cross-fertilization, and asymmetrical hybridization.

Impacts of earthworms and their excreta on peat soil properties and bacterial community
Peatlands store 20–30 % of the global soil carbon (C). Earthworms simultaneously increase net C stabilization and net C mineralization. But little is known about the impact of earthworm invasion on the C cycling in peat soils.

Is tagging with visual implant elastomer a reliable technique for marking earthworms? [PDF]
Visual implant elastomer (VIE) has recently been employed to investigate different aspects of earthworm ecology. However, a number of fundamental questions relating to the detection and positioning of the tag, its persistence and potential effects on ...

Recent Trends in Metabolomics by NMR Spectroscopy
AI tools were applied to analyze more than 5 000 publications indexed in Scopus (2018–2025), identifying key trends and research directions in NMR‐based metabolomics. The artificial intelligence‐assisted workflow classified papers into six main fields of application, human health, food and nutrition, veterinary science, plants, environment, and ...

Long-term effects of cropping systems on the earthworm population in a loam soil [PDF]
Six cropping systems, ranging from conventional arable without livestock to organic livestock farming dominated by ley, have been compared in 1990 and 2004 in SE Norway. Ley in the crop rotation increased density and biomass of earthworms and channels in

Bioassays with terrestrial and aquatic species as monitoring tools of hydrocarbon degradation [PDF]
In this study chemical analyses and ecotoxicity tests were applied for the assessment of a heavily hydrocarbon-contaminated soil prior and after the application of a remediation procedure that consisted in the stimulation of soil autochthonous ...
