In the present experiment, we evaluated the effect of three earthworm species on soil fertility and seedling growth of maize (Zea mays), a food plant of great importance in Mexico. One individual of each species (Balanteodrilus pearsei and Lavellodrilus bonampakensis, two native species and Pontoscolex corethrurus, an exotic), were used in the germination and initial maize growth experiment (vegetative phase v6), with four replicates per treatment and 9 seeds per pot, with 4 kg of soil each. Organic matter contents, total nitrogen and available phosphorus in the soil and in the maize leaves were determined at the end of the experiment. L. bonampakensis significantly increased foliar and root biomass, B. pearsei increased only shoot biomass ...
