Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 BackgroundTo promote the decomposition of returned straw, reduce the incidence of soil-borne diseases caused by returned straw, and accelerate the conversion of straw carbon into soil carbon, we inoculated earthworms into fields with returned straw.

Ecological and physiological effects of soil management practices on earthworm communities in French vineyards [PDF]
, 2012 In recent literature, very few studies have reported the use of the combination of indicators from ecological communities and ecotoxicity biomarkers in field experiments to assess agricultural quality.

Impacts of earthworms and their excreta on peat soil properties and bacterial community
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 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.

Earthworm genomes, genes and proteins : the (re)discovery of Darwin’s worms [PDF]
, 2008 Small incremental biological change, winnowed by natural selection over geological time scales to produce large consequences, was Darwin's singular insight that revolutionized the life sciences. His publications after 1859, including the ‘earthworm book’,

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022 Increased production and environmental release of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) increase soil exposure and potential risk to earthworms. However, MWCNT toxicity to earthworms remains unclear, with some studies identifying negative effects and ...
