摘要
In experiments conducted in the Cote d'Ivoire, increased growth of maize and guinea grass in an infertile, granite-derived soil was associated with the addition of earthworms to the soil in which these plants were grown. Experiments using N-15-labelled Millsonia anomala and soil microbial biomass indicated an increased incorporation of N from the microbial biomass into Panicum maximum in the presence of earthworms.
