Interrogation of earthworm (Clitellata: Haplotaxida) taxonomy and the DNA sequence database

open access: yesJournal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2021
The DNA sequence database assists us with great potential in species identification because it is practical and affordable to perform. More often, the identification using molecular data helps to identify morphologically variable individuals of same ...

The genome sequence of the Brown Litter Worm, Bimastos eiseni (Levinsen, 1884) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations] [PDF]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual Bimastos eiseni (the Brown Litter Worm; Annelida; None; Haplotaxida; Lumbricidae). The genome sequence is 660.5 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 17 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The

Unexpected species diversity in the understanding of selenium-containing soil invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Yutangba, situated in Enshi City, Hubei Province, is globally noted for its high selenium (Se) content. Soil invertebrates are essential to the functionality and services of terrestrial ecosystems, yet their community composition in this region remains ...

Cutaneous excreta of the earthworm Eisenia fetida (Haplotaxida: Lumbricidae) might hinder the biological control performance of entomopathogenic nematodes

open access: yesSoil Biology and Biochemistry, 2020
Earthworms enhance soil structure, the decomposition of organic matter and the dissemination of beneficial soil organisms such as the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). Nevertheless, the effects of earthworm feeding behavior or cutaneous excreta (CEx) on the performance of EPNs as biological control agents is poorly understood. We hypothesized that the

ATIVIDADE REPRODUTIVA DA EISENIA FOETIDA (SAVIGNY, 1826) (HAPLOTAXIDA: LUMBRICIDAE) EM DIFERENTES HÁBITATS

open access: yesRevista Ouricuri, 2018
Este artigo tem como proposta avaliar o comportamento reprodutivo da Eisenia foetida em diferentes substratos. Estudos anteriores buscam demonstrar que o esterco bovino é o substrato mais indicado devido às suas propriedades físico-químicas, porem existem outros substratos que se fazem viáveis, como o esterco de caprinos e ovinos, que tem baixo ...

Influence of some environmental variables on the diversity and distribution of aquatic oligochaetes (Clitellata: Annelida) in the Nyong estuary (Atlantic coast, southern Cameroon)

open access: yesScientific African
Tropical estuarine ecosystems are subject to strong anthropogenic pressures, with the direct consequence of declining or lost biodiversity. An essential and little-known biological component of these estuarine ecosystems is the population of oligochaete ...

Earthworm species and density in semi-natural grasslands on rice paddy levees in Japanese satoyama [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal, 2020
Earthworms contribute to the sustainability of food webs in the semi-natural grasslands of levees at paddy margins, which are typical components of satoyama, the traditional agricultural landscapes of Japan.
