Alternative methods to synthetic chemical control of Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. A systematic review

Agronomy for Sustainable Development, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 43(4)

Published: Aug. 1, 2023

Abstract Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. is one of the worst agricultural weeds and invasive species in world, being widely established many countries. Despite its impact on agriculture growing awareness authorities consumers about consequences synthetic herbicides, alternative control methods for this weed have been poorly reviewed. A systematic review literature published over last 50 years was used to assess most studied C. (excluding herbicides) summarize trends knowledge gaps. The major findings are as follows: (1) number publications that chemical management has increasing exponentially since 1972; (2) studies were made under controlled conditions (57%) lack observations real production conditions; (3) field experiments carried out Asia (42%), temperate subtropical arid climates; (4) publication articles studying allelopathy stands significantly (50% papers found), with two from Poaceae family, rice ( Oryza sativa L.) sorghum Sorghum bicolor Moench), showing very high allelopathic inhibitory effects (often above 80%), especially open (5) preventive soil tillage treatment among indirect treatments, although there a risk propagation, results indicate can contribute , when compared no-tillage treatments. Further research needed optimize treatments so they be applied by farmers conditions.

Glyphosate used as desiccant contaminates plant pollen and nectar of non-target plant species

Heliyon, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 8(12), P. e12179 - e12179

Published: Dec. 1, 2022

Pesticide products containing glyphosate as a systemic active ingredient are some of the most extensively used herbicides worldwide. After spraying, residues have been found in nectar and pollen collected by bees foraging on treated plants. This dietary exposure to could pose hazard for flower-visiting animals including bees, delivery pollination services. Here, we evaluated whether contaminates targeted crops non-target wild Oilseed rape was selected focal crop species,

The State of the World's Arable Land

Annual Review of Environment and Resources, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 48(1), P. 451 - 475

Published: Aug. 25, 2023

For millennia, agriculture has been shaping landscapes on Earth. Technological change increased agricultural productivity dramatically, especially in the past six decades, but also resulted trade-offs such as land and soil degradation, emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs), spreading toxic substances. In this article we review impacts world's arable land. We start by synthesizing information extent associated practices, followed a state art health carbon. processes GHGs, threats to biodiversity. To conclude, key social economic aspects identify some important concerns for future. The ends positive note describing potential new pathway agriculture—to gradually adopt polycultures novel perennial grain crops.

Recent technologies for glyphosate removal from aqueous environment: A critical review

Environmental Research, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 240, P. 117477 - 117477

Published: Nov. 1, 2023

The growing demand for food has led to an increase in the use of herbicides and pesticides over years. One most widely used is glyphosate (GLY). It been extensively since 1974 weed control currently classified by World Health Organization (WHO) as a Group 2A substance, probably carcinogenic humans. industry academia have some disagreements regarding GLY toxicity humans its effects on environment. Even though this herbicide not mentioned WHO water guidelines, countries decided set maximum acceptable concentrations tap water, while others ban crop production completely. Researchers around world employed different technologies remove or degrade GLY, mostly at laboratory scale. Water treatment plants combine it alongside other pollutants, cases achieving removal efficiencies. Certainly, there are many challenges upscaling purification due costs lack factual information about their adverse effects. This review presents that from 2012 date, detection methods, challenges, future perspectives.

Making sense of sentinels: wildlife as the one health bridge for environmental antimicrobial resistance surveillance

Journal of Applied Microbiology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), arising from decades of imprudent anthropogenic use antimicrobials in healthcare and agriculture, is considered one the greatest One Health crises facing globally. pollutants released human-associated sources are intensifying evolution environment. Due to various ecological factors, wildlife interact with these polluted ecosystems, acquiring resistant bacteria genes. Although recognised reservoirs disseminators AMR environment, current surveillance systems still primarily focus on clinical agricultural settings, neglecting this environmental dimension. Wildlife can serve as valuable sentinels reflecting ecosystem health, effectiveness mitigation strategies. This review explores knowledge gaps surrounding factors influencing acquisition dissemination wildlife, highlights limitations policy instruments that do not sufficiently address component AMR. We discuss underutilised opportunity using sentinel species a holistic, Health-centred system. By better integrating into systematic policy, leveraging advances high-throughput technologies, we track predict evolution, assess impacts, understand complex dynamics transmission across ecosystems.

Semi-field studies on biochemical markers of honey bee workers (Apis mellifera) after exposure to pesticides and their mixtures

PLoS ONE, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 20(1), P. e0309567 - e0309567

Due to the fact that many different pesticides are used in crop production and their residues can accumulate environment, bees contact with various at same time. Most studies on influence honey focus single substances concentrations higher than those found environment. Our study assessed chronic effects of commonly mixtures selected biochemical markers worker bee hemolymph. Workers developed hive were provisioned corresponding detected pollen, honey, and/or nectar.

Evaluation of herbicide formulations and spreading agents on survival of the bumblebee Bombus impatiens following spray and contact exposure

Ecotoxicology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: March 18, 2025

Surfactants are often included as co-formulants in the application of herbicides to aid spreading and adherence plant surfaces, but toxicity native bees has not been extensively tested. In a set progressive experiments, we evaluated effects products containing glyphosate agents, well agents alone, on bumblebees (Bombus impatiens Cresson) using parametric survival analysis. We test spreaders from multiple chemical classes including Silwet L-77© (trisiloxane), Alligare 90© (polyoxyethylene), Southern Ag SA-50© (C10–16 alcohols). report low lethality high-glyphosate herbicide formulations (Rodeo©), bee mortality increased ~20% with addition silicone-based agent (Silwet L-77©). Spreaders alone strongly affected survival: were concentration-specific did differ depending exposure method (spray vs. surfaces contacted by bees). The widely used trisiloxane-based spreader was especially hazardous, high concentrations caused rapid near-total B. impatiens. Analysis whole-bee cuticle extracts after revealed clear differences cuticular hydrocarbon profiles associated agents: alkane n-hexacosane present all detected greater relative abundance exposed 90©. To support wild conservation efforts, recommend substituting alcohol-based for siloxane-based when possible. addition, certain hydrocarbons may be useful biomarkers previous surfactants, which can investigations evaluating causes bumblebee decline across landscapes.
