Influence of the diet on the composition of the earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae
Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2021 The earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae is a well-known source of protein in animal feeding but there is lack of information on its fatty acid profile. This study aimed to determine its nutrient components and fatty acid profile.

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 ...

Emission of methane by Eudrilus eugeniae and other earthworms from Brazil. [PDF]
Appl Environ Microbiol, 2012 ABSTRACT Earthworms emit denitrification-derived nitrous oxide and fermentation-derived molecular hydrogen. The present study demonstrated that the earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae , obtained in Brazil, emitted methane. Other worms displayed a lesser or no capacity to emit methane.

RESÍDUOS ORGÂNICOS AGROINDUSTRIAIS INFLUENCIAM A PRODUÇÃO DE HÚMUS E MULTIPLICAÇÃO DE MINHOCAS
Revista Brasileira de Engenharia de Biossistemas, 2021 Dentre as técnicas utilizadas no aproveitamento de resíduos agroindustriais, destaca-se a vermicompostagem, ou seja, o uso de minhocas na degradação desses resíduos pelo trato digestivo, transformando-os em húmus de minhoca. A minhoca Eudrilus eugeniae (
