Unlike many other fungicides, strobilurins are applied several times during the growing season for prophylactic purposes, thus heightening risk of environmental contamination. In EU, dimoxystrobin approval period lasted 17 years. It has been classified as moderately toxic to birds and highly earthworms, it is suspected be carcinogenic humans. However, still commercialized in countries. The effects largely underexplored, with only three studies reporting sublethal alterations fish. Here, we evaluated first time on zebrafish liver after short-term exposure (96 h) two environmentally relevant concentrations (6.56 13.13 μg/L), providing evidence morphological, functional, ultrastructural modifications. We revealed severe encompassing reaction patterns: circulatory disturbance, regressive progressive changes, which also showed a dose-dependent trend. Furthermore, that induced significant increase lipid content, decrease glycogen granules affected defensive response against oxidative stress through downregulation SOD CAT. information presented here demonstrates hazardous properties may result from pathological events involving multiple targets. Our results emphasize importance combined use functional investigation ecotoxicological studies.

A series of novel pyridine-based compounds integrating bioactive amide and hydrazide groups were designed synthesized through an active group splicing strategy. The fungicidal bioassays indicated that several showed remarkable broad-spectrum inhibitory activity. Notably, compound A5 displayed satisfactory in vitro activity against Fusarium graminearum, Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Botrytis cinerea, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Alternaria sp., Physalospora piricola, with EC50 values 2.53, 2.84, 1.64, 7.59, 4.67, 5.50, 2.84 μg mL-1, respectively. Additionally, also promising vivo preventive efficiency F. graminearum R. solani at 100 mL-1. Preliminary investigation the mechanism demonstrated differentially expressed genes differential metabolites treated 10 mL-1 exhibited notable enrichment pathways associated lipid metabolism, potentially linking to plasma membrane contraction observed by TEM. Furthermore, assess environmental compatibility A5, its toxicity zebrafish, hydrolysis rates different pH buffers, effects on growth wheat seedlings evaluated. These findings will provide substantial theoretical guidance for development new environmentally friendly fungicides.

Pesticides are a critical aspect of contemporary agriculture and significant driver agricultural intensification productivity. However, the overuse chemical pesticides in activities continues to be concern worldwide. The study is based on qualitative quantitative approaches, using personal interviews with 390 vegetable farmers Assam, India. A total amount 2573 kg pesticide-active ingredients was applied by per season, it observed that 68% exceeded recommended pesticide usage, an average rate 0.88 season. According toxicity classification World Health Organization, about 16% active reported were highly hazardous, while 25% moderately hazardous. used binary logistic regression where factors like education level, Integrated Pest Management, cultivation separate plots for self-consumption reduced overuse. In contrast, farmers' experience health symptoms, information sources, access credit, off-farm income found promote This provides valuable insights policymakers design effective policies address problem developing countries general India particular.

Aim of study: Root-knot nematodes are considered a common limiting factor to reaching premium quality and economically viable yields in horticultural crops. Soil disinfestation with agrochemical fumigants has been the main nematode control method until their recent ban due environmental social concerns. This paper explores farmers agricultural advisors’ opinion preferences on sustainable use available methods, considering sustainability as an integration nematicidal effectiveness, reduction harmful effects preservation human health. Area study carried out between farm advisors intensive crop areas Southern Spain. Material methods: Farm nematicides was evaluated following survey Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. The analysis done exploratory. Main results: Providing that current methods give enough effectiveness get profitable yield, group showed great consciousness alternatives for crops, prioritizing biosolarization first option, followed by biopesticides fumigant third place. ozone non-fumigant high toxicity profiles were last options, but new generation lower ecotoxicity also important tool management. Research highlights: These results provide prediction farmers' responses promoted European Union when banned.
