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

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

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 ...
