The Soil Sets the Floor

Serotonin receptor blockade and burrowing depth across five soil textures

A research poster from the School of Underlying Conditions places 120 earthworms from one laboratory colony in repacked columns of five soil textures after a bath in a serotonin receptor antagonist or vehicle, and reads maximum burrow depth at 72 hours. Blockade shortened burrows by 12.8 cm in sand and left them unchanged in clay, where untreated worms were already held shallow.
