Abstract

The article examines the impact of leaf litter allelopathic properties and earthworms trophy metabolic activity of earthworms (Lumbricidae) on the soil allelopathic properties under the Acer platanoides L., Aesculus hippocastanum L., Ulmus minor Mill. In the Dnepropetrovsk parks. It was established that earthworms trophy metabolic activity positively influenced on soils allelopathic status.
