Agriculture is fundamental for human development, but it may also have a range of unwanted effects on ecosystems when pesticides inadvertently enter the environment. We determined toxicity difenoconazole and atrazine, as well their photodegradation products, bioindicators Lemna minor Daphnia magna. For L. minor, we assessed number leaves, biomass, chlorophyll content exposed to different concentrations (0–8 mg/L) atrazine (0–3.84 mg/L). D. magna, mortality (0–1.6 (0–80 found that higher pesticides, both bioindicators. In highest was 0.96 mg/L, whereas difenoconazole, 8 mg/L. 48 h LC50 0.97 while 86.19 not compared products. contrast, more toxic its respective Pesticides are serious threat aquatic biota, products remain in Additionally, use can help monitor these pollutants countries where application imperative agricultural production.
