Journal ArticleDOI

Pandora's Box Contained Bait : The Global Problem of Introduced Earthworms

TL;DR: A number of endogenous and exogenous factors that may contribute to the successful establishment and spread of peregrine species are identified and quantification of these factors may help to determine why certain species become invasive while others do not.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA Barcoding Reveals Cryptic Diversity in Lumbricus terrestris L., 1758 (Clitellata): Resurrection of L. herculeus (Savigny, 1826)

TL;DR: Large numbers of DNA barcode sequences of the cytochrome oxidase I obtained for nominal L. terrestris and six congeneric species reveal that there are two distinct lineages within nominal L, herculeus, and the two are morphologically indistinguishable, except by overlapping size-related characters.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimated cast production and rates of nutrient processing by the native genus Diplocardia and by exotic Lumbricidae in permanent plots on two soil types at Konza Prairie Research Natural Area.

Phylogeny of the Megascolecidae and Crassiclitellata (Annelida, Oligochaeta): combined versus partitioned analysis using nuclear (28S) and mitochondrial (12S, 16S) rDNA

TL;DR: La congruence et le soutien de pouvoir combine soutiennent nos conclusions : la plupart des groupements ont ete bases sur des homoplasies, par exemple l'origine multiple des prostates racemeuses et de the meronephridie de « type Dichogastrinae ».
