  abstract = {{T}he aims of this work were firstly to study the effect of heavy metal-polluted soils from {T}unisian mine on earthworm biochemical biomarkers and on bacterial communities and therefore to analyze the interaction between earth worms and bacterial communities in these contaminated soils. {F}or this purpose, we had introduced earthworm {E}isenia andrei in six soils: one from mine spoils and five from agricultural soils, establishing a gradient of contamination. {T}he response of worms to the presence of heavy metal was analyzed at the biochemical and transcriptional levels. {I}n a second time, the impact of worm on bacterial community structure was investigated using automated ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis ({ARISA}) fingerprinting. {A}n impact of heavy metal-contaminated soils on the oxidative status of {E}. andrei was observed, but this effect was dependent of the level of heavy metal contamination. {M}oreover, our results demonstrate that the introduction of earthworms {E}. andrei has an impact on bacterial community; however, the major change was observed in the less contaminated site. {F}urthermore, a significant correlation between earthworm oxidative status biomarkers and bacterial community structure was observed, mainly in the mine spoils. {T}herefore, we contribute to a better understanding of the relationships between epigenic earthworms and bacterial communities in heavy metal-contaminated soils.},
