Journal ArticleDOI
Interrogation of earthworm (Clitellata: Haplotaxida) taxonomy and the DNA sequence database
TL;DR: The study shows the universality of single locus persist utopian and the use of other typical loci may strengthen earthworm diversity assessment, as well as the vital role of publicly available nucleotide sequence databases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disentangling earthworm taxonomic stumbling blocks using molecular markers
TL;DR: This study examines the application of molecular markers, in particular mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase (COI), to facilitate discrimination of closely related earthworm species to offer potential solutions to disentangling taxonomic impediments in earthworms and advancing their systematics and population genetics.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA barcoding and genetic variability of earthworms (Clitellata: Oligochaeta) with new records from Mizoram, India
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used morpho-anatomical features and sequencing of the COI gene to assess the diversity and genetic variability of earthworms in Mizoram, one of the northeastern regions of India.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA Barcoding of Earthworms of Coorg Region of Karnataka, India and Study of Their Physio-Chemical Habitat
TL;DR: The earthworm fauna was investigated from three Taluks namely, Somvarpet, Virajpet and Madikeri of Coorg, a district situated in the south western part of Karnataka, India and DNA barcoding results showed that Pontoscolex corethrurus was the most common earthworm species in Coorg.

Phylogenetic Relationships in Earthworm Megascolex Species (Oligochaeta: Megascolecidae) with Addition of Two New Species
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors applied the first integrative approach using morpho-anatomical features and a COI dataset to unveil species delimitation, molecular taxonomy, and phylogenetic relationships in Megascolex species.
