Compost and vermicompost as nursery pot components: effects on tomato plant growth and morphology
- C. Lazcano, J. Arnold, A. Tato, J. Zaller, J. Domínguez
- Biology
- 1 December 2009
Post transplant success after nursery stage is strongly influenced by plant morphology. Cultural practices strongly shape plant morphology, and substrate choice is one of the most determining… Expand

Earthworms belonging to the family Lumbricidae are extremely abundant in terrestrial temperate regions. They affect soil properties and nutrient cycling, thus shaping plant community composition and… Expand
C to N ratio strongly affects population structure of Eisenia fetida in vermicomposting systems
- M. Aira, F. Monroy, J. Domínguez
- Biology
- 1 November 2006
Food quality influences not only the size of earthworm populations but also their growth and reproduction rates. Here we studied the effect of C to N ratio of pig slurry in microbial biomass and… Expand
Recycling of Solid Organic Wastes Through Vermicomposting: Microbial Community Changes Throughout the Process and Use of Vermicompost as a Soil Amendment
- M. Gómez-Brandón, J. Domínguez
- Environmental Science
- 14 May 2014
Vermicomposting (i.e., the processing of organic waste by earthworms) is a low-cost rapid technique for transforming large amounts of waste into a safe and valuable product called vermicompost. The… Expand
Effects of two species of earthworms (Allolobophora spp.) on soil systems: a microfaunal and biochemical analysisThe 7th international symposium on earthworm ecology · Cardiff · Wales · 2002

- Biology
- 2003
Summary In this work we studied how earthworm digestion affects both soil biochemical and microfaunal characteristics. We sampled paired fresh casts and bulk soil of two earthworm species,… Expand
How earthworm density affects microbial biomas and activity in pig manure
- M. Aira, F. Monroy, J. Domínguez, S. Mato
- Biology
- 1 February 2002
We studied the influence of the earthworm, Eisenia fetida, on the microbial populations during the vermicomposting of pig manure. Fresh pig manure was placed in replicated boxes with (two densities,… Expand

The feasibility of incorporating vermicompost as a plant growth promoter into pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) nurseries was investigated. Pines were grown in conventional peat-based nursery potting media… Expand
Effects of vermicompost as a potting amendment of two commercially-grown ornamental plant species
- C. Lazcano, J. Domínguez
- Biology
- 1 December 2010
We evaluated the feasibility of incorporating vermicompost as a potting amendment into a commercial ornamental production system. Pansies (Viola × wittrockiana subsp. Delta) and primulas (Primula… Expand
