The Effects of Microplastics and Additives on Ecosystem Function, Structure, and Signaling
Microplastics disrupt ecosystem signaling through olfactory traps, altering predator–prey signaling and disrupting microbial communication and quorum sensing. ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) and their associated chemical additives are pervasive contaminants whose ecological impacts extend beyond organismal toxicity to fundamentally alter ecosystem ...

ABSTRACT Nano‐enabled fertilizers can enhance biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) and yield in legumes; yet, their interactions with earthworms remain poorly understood. Herein, we performed a 120‐day greenhouse experiment applying low‐dose n‐MoS2 at 10 mg kg−1 with earthworms to evaluate interactive effects on soybean yield and underlying mechanisms ...

Unexpected results and open questions from experiments on regeneration in lumbricid worms [PDF]
Lumbricid worms are commonly subjected to noxious stimuli leading to expulsion of celomic fluid or to loss of body segments; therefore regeneration of lost segments and restoration of the depleted cellular and soluble components of celomic fluid are of

Riboflavin content in autofluorescent earthworm coelomocytes is species-specific.
We have recently shown that a large proproportion of earthworm coelomocytes exhibit strong autofluorescence in some species (Dendrobaena veneta, Allolobophora chlorotica, Dendrodrilus rubidus, Eisenia fetida, and Octolasion spp.), while autofluorescent ...
