Neonicotinoid insecticides can serve as inadvertent insect contraceptives [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016
There is clear evidence for sublethal effects of neonicotinoid insecticides on non-target ecosystem service-providing insects. However, their possible impact on male insect reproduction is currently unknown, despite the key role of sex.

Thiamethoxam impairs honey bee visual learning, alters decision times, and increases abnormal behaviors. [PDF]

, 2020
Learning is important for honey bee fitness and the pollination services that they provide. Neonicotinoid pesticides impair learning, fitness, colony health, and pollination, but most studies on how they affect bee learning have focused on olfactory ...

Toxicity of neonicotinoid and pyrethroid insecticides on early development of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) (Overview)

Theoretical and Applied Veterinary Medicine, 2022
Due to insect pests, agriculture incurs significant losses, which leads to the massive use of insecticides around the world. However, the use of insecticides has certain environmental risks.

Pharmacophore of neonicotinoid insecticides

Journal of Pesticide Science, 2008
Our recent study related to neonicotinoid pharmacophore was presented. The first topic described on the QSAR study with 17 variants of 2-nitroiminoimizolidine. The insect neuroblocking potency is proportionally related both to the Mulliken charge on the nitro oxygen atom and log P.

Alternative Developmental Toxicity Screening Methods Using Chick Embryo‐Based Models

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonclinical developmental toxicity studies are used to investigate the potential toxicities of drugs and chemical candidates on normal embryonic and fetal development during pregnancy, generally using mammalian laboratory animals such as rats and rabbits.

Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.

Impact of controlled neonicotinoid exposure on bumblebees in a realistic field setting [PDF]

, 2016
1. Pesticide exposure has been implicated as a contributor to insect pollinator declines. In social bees, which are crucial pollination service providers, the effect of low-level chronic exposure is typically non-lethal leading researchers to consider ...

Amplification of a cytochrome P450 gene is associated with resistance to neonicotinoid insecticides in the aphid Myzus persicae. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2010
The aphid Myzus persicae is a globally significant crop pest that has evolved high levels of resistance to almost all classes of insecticide. To date, the neonicotinoids, an economically important class of insecticides that target nicotinic acetylcholine
