Degradation of pesticides by the ligninolytic enzyme Laccase : optimisation of in vitro conditions, immobilisation and screening for natural mediators [PDF]

, 2013
Pesticides are widely used in many industries but the majority reaches non-target organisms or locations through point or diffuse sources. Understanding conditions for their degradation is therefore important.

Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Resistive Leaf Wetness Sensors for Pesticide Spray Deposition [PDF]

Glob Chall
A laser‐induced graphene leaf wetness sensor is fabricated by CO2 laser‐patterning interdigitated electrodes on flexible polyimide and adding silver‐paste contacts through a shadow mask. Calibration with multiple pesticide formulations and tap water shows decreasing resistance with increasing deposited volume, while spray tests demonstrate close ...

Social Costs of Herbicide Resistance: The Case of Resistance to Glyphosate [PDF]

Unlike in the pesticide and antibiotic resistance literature, potential social costs and externalities associated with herbicide resistance have not generally been considered by economists.

Bioremediation of Glyphosate Polluted Soil using Fungal Species [PDF]

, 2022
Glyphosate is an organophosphate compound used as herbicide in agricultural farms. It partly contributes to xenobiotic contamination of soil samples. Issues of toxicity and persistence have given rise to the need for its control in soils.

Adsorbents for glyphosate removal in contaminated waters: a review [PDF]

, 2020
Glyphosate is an herbicide used to control weeds and optimize agricultural production. However, since glyphosate is an emerging pollutant claimed to be potentially carcinogenic, glyphosate pollution of soils and water is a health issue.

Environmental Stressors Influence Spatial Complexity in a Fluvial Macrophyte meadow

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research investigates the nonlinear relationships between environmental stressors and the fine‐scale spatial complexity of a fluvial macrophytes meadow. The use of multivariate spatial analysis allowed us to identify two major environmental gradients (nutrients and light) and two major complexity gradients (related to abundance and fragmentation).

Efficacy, crop response, and economics of alternatives to glyphosate for pre‐plant weed control in small grains

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
The value of glyphosate to growers practicing minimum or no‐till farming has been primarily a function of three factors: broad‐spectrum weed control, little to no carryover effect, and cost effectiveness.

Toxicological Impacts of Certain Herbicides on Reproductive System and Thyroid Gland in Male Rats [PDF]

Journal of Plant Protection and Pathology
This study examined the effects of four commonly used herbicides (Glyphosate, Dicamba, S-metolachlor, and Cyhalofop-butyl) on male rats. Animals were orally administered 1/10 LD50 of the tested herbicides for four weeks /three times a week, at the end of

Farmers’ Preferences for Sustainable Crop Protection: An Integrated Choice and Latent Variable Approach

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes farmers' preferences for sustainable crop protection, focusing on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices by incorporating social‐psychological factors to capture economic and behavioral dimensions. Using data from German and Polish potato farmers, we apply an integrated choice and latent variable framework that combines

Evaluating glyphosate alternative acetyl-CoA carboxylase–inhibiting herbicides and application timings to terminate cereal rye in soybean

Weed Technology
Fall-planted cover crops are becoming popular among growers in the Midwest for various reasons, including their ability to suppress weeds. Cereal rye is the cover crop most often planted in Nebraska.
