Function of translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) in Eudrilus eugeniae regeneration. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
TCTP (Translationally Controlled Tumour Protein) is a multifunctional protein that plays a role in the development, immune system, tumour reversion, and maintenance of stem cells. The mRNA of the Tpt1 gene is over-expressed during liver regeneration. But,

Influence of Worm Density on the Growth of Eudrilus eugeniae [PDF]

Tropicultura, 1997
The experiment shows that there is an optimal density to obtain the highest biomass when rearing hatchlings of Eudrilus eugeniae. Higher densities induce lower individual weight gain and longer duration to sexual maturity.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae. [PDF]

Curr Genomics, 2022
Background: Earthworms are annelids. They play a major role in agriculture and soil fertility. Vermicompost is the best organic manure for plant crops. Eudrilus eugeniae is an earthworm well suited for efficient vermicompost production. The worm is also used to study the cell and molecular biology of regeneration, molecular toxicology, developmental ...

Effect Of Various Substrates On Eudrilus eugeniae (Oligochaeta) Production [PDF]

Tropicultura, 1994
In order to assess the effects of substrate on Eudrilus eugeniae production, 360 worms were raised in plastic buckets containing manure either from cattle (BV), from sheep (CM), from rabbit (CL), and from chicken (FP).

Observation of Self-Assemblage Behavior in African Nightcrawler (Eudrilus eugeniae)

Hayati Journal of Biosciences
Self-assemblage is a form of social behavior observed in some earthworm species, where individuals spontaneously group with conspecifics. This behavior has been previously documented in Eisenia fetida, an epigeic species widely used in vermiculture ...

Assessment on the Toxic Effects of Chemically Synthesized SPIONs against Model Organisms

Journal of Nanomaterials, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The remarkable physicochemical properties of nanomaterials have attracted researchers due to the numerous applications in the field of chemistry, biology, and physics. Despite the various applications, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are harmful to living organisms and to the environment as they are released without any safety ...

Seasonal Decomposition Rates of Broadleaf and Conifer Wood Litter in Far Eastern Tropical Forest Communities

International Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Studies on wood litter decomposition sometimes show conflicting results. While low temperatures and humidity during winter in temperate climates are reported to halt the activity of decomposing agents, in the warmest and wettest tropical regions of the Far East, peat accumulates on the forest floor, indicating that the decomposition process is not ...
