Pesticides are chemicals used in agriculture, forestry, and, to some extent, public health. As effective as they can be, due the limited biodegradability and toxicity of them, also have negative environmental health impacts. Pesticide biodegradation is important because it help mitigate effects pesticides. Many types microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, algae, degrade pesticides; microorganisms able bioremediate pesticides using diverse metabolic pathways where enzymatic degradation plays a crucial role achieving chemical transformation The growing concern about impacts pushing industry these products develop more sustainable alternatives, such high biodegradable chemicals. degradative properties could be fully exploited advances genetic engineering biotechnology, paving way for bioremediation strategies, new technologies, novel applications. purpose current review discuss that demonstrated their capacity those categorized by World Health Organization impact may on human A comprehensive list presented, enzymes pesticide genetics behind this process discussed. Due number known capable degrading low described purpose, research must conducted field, genes yet discovered with possibility finding efficient biodegradation.

The larval gut of Spodoptera frugiperda harbours culturable bacteria with metabolic versatility after insecticide exposure

Insect Molecular Biology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Feb. 14, 2025

Abstract Spodoptera frugiperda (fall armyworm) poses a substantial risk to crops worldwide, resulting in considerable economic damage. The gut microbiota of insects plays crucial roles digestion, nutrition, immunity, growth and, sometimes, the degradation insecticides. current study examines effect synthetic insecticides on microbiome third instar S. larvae using both culture‐dependent techniques and 16S rRNA gene sequencing for bacterial community profiling diversity analysis. In untreated larvae, approach revealed diverse dominated by phyla Firmicutes, Proteobacteria Bacteroidota, with key genera including Bacteroides , Faecalibacterium Pelomonas . parallel, 323 strains were isolated assigned orders Bacillales, Burkholderiales, Enterobacterales, Flavobacteriales, Lactobacillales, Micrococcales, Neisseriaies, Pseudomonadales, Sphingobacteriales Xanthomonadales. prevailing culturable species included Serratia marcescens Klebsiella variicola Enterobacter quasiroggenkampii Treatment sublethal concentrations three (broflanilide, spinosad indoxacarb) caused significant changes composition. Treated showed shift towards increased abundance decreased Firmicutes. Specifically, Acinetobacter Rhodococcus dominant treated samples. Functional predictions highlighted metabolic versatility involving nutrient processing, immune response, detoxification, xenobiotic metabolism, stress suggesting microbial adaptation insecticide exposure. Network correlation analysis disrupted interactions altered structures under treatment. These findings enhance our understanding how impact may inform future strategies managing pest resistance through microbiome‐based approaches.

Symbiotic bacteria confer insecticide resistance by metabolizing buprofezin in the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)

PLoS Pathogens, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 19(12), P. e1011828 - e1011828

Buprofezin, a chitin synthesis inhibitor, is widely used to control several economically important insect crop pests. However, the overuse of buprofezin has led evolution resistance and exposed off-target organisms present in agri-environments this compound. As many as six different strains bacteria isolated from these environments have been shown degrade buprofezin. whether insects can acquire buprofezin-degrading soil enhance their own remains unknown. Here we show that field brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens , acquired symbiotic bacteria, occurring naturally water, provides them with We bacterium, Serratia marcescens ( Bup_Serratia ), buprofezin-resistant N . showed it capacity Buprofezin-susceptible inoculated became resistant buprofezin, while antibiotic-treated susceptible insecticide, confirming role resistance.

Microbial Symbiont-Based Detoxification of Different Phytotoxins and Synthetic Toxic Chemicals in Insect Pests and Pollinators

Journal of Xenobiotics, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(2), P. 753 - 771

Published: June 4, 2024

Insects are the most diverse form of life, and as such, they interact closely with humans, impacting our health, economy, agriculture. Beneficial insect species contribute to pollination, biological control pests, decomposition, nutrient cycling. Pest can cause damage agricultural crops vector diseases humans livestock. often exposed toxic xenobiotics in environment, both naturally occurring toxins like plant secondary metabolites synthetic chemicals herbicides, fungicides, insecticides. Because this, insects have evolved several mechanisms resistance xenobiotics, including sequestration, behavioral avoidance, enzymatic degradation, many cases had developed symbiotic relationships microbes that aid this detoxification. As research progresses, important roles these health function become more apparent. Bacterial symbionts degrade phytotoxins allow host feed on otherwise chemically defended plants. They also confer pesticide their hosts, especially frequently treated fields. It is study interactions between order further understanding pest mitigate negative effect pesticides nontarget Hymenopteran pollinators.
