Species-specific effects of epigeic earthworms on microbial community structure during first stages of decomposition of organic matter.
Epigeic earthworms are key organisms in organic matter decomposition because of the interactions they establish with microorganisms. The earthworm species and the quality and/or substrate availability are expected to be major factors influencing the outcome of these interactions. Here we tested whet...
