In October, we found that plant diversity had only a marginally significant effect on the infiltration capacity on subplots with ambient earthworm density, but plant species diversity affected infiltration capacity significantly on subplots with reduced earthworm density, presumably due to plant roots clogging macropores [78] , [79] .
