• Rhizosphere fauna: the functional and structural diversity of intimate interactions of soil fauna with plant roots (2009, unknown): “…of three stress-responsive genes in leaves (coding for lipoxygenase, phospholipase D and cysteine protease) was modulated in presence of earthworm activity, Blouin et al. (2005) convincingly demonstrated that earthworms triggered the induced defense of rice against root parasitic nematodes.”
