Phytobiomes Journal, 2023 Neonicotinoid insecticides are widely used to control early-season and foliar-feeding pests. Some studies have revealed their nontarget impacts on pollinators and other invertebrates but few investigated their effects on soil microbiota.

The Sublethal Effects of Neonicotinoids on Honeybees. [PDF]
Biology (Basel)Honeybees (Apis mellifera) are indispensable pollinators vital to global biodiversity, ecosystem stability, and agricultural productivity, and they promote over 35% of food crops and 75% of flowering plants. Yet, they are in unprecedented decline, partly as a result of neonicotinoid pesticide use elsewhere.

Host Plant Species Mediates Impact of Neonicotinoid Exposure to Monarch Butterflies
Insects, 2021 Neonicotinoids are the most widely used insecticides in North America. Numerous studies document the negative effects of neonicotinoids on bees, and it remains crucial to demonstrate if neonicotinoids affect other non-target insects, such as butterflies.

Target-site resistance to neonicotinoids [PDF]
Journal of Chemical Biology, 2014 Neonicotinoid insecticides selectively target the invertebrate nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and disrupt excitatory cholinergic neurotransmission. First launched over 20 years ago, their broad pest spectrum, variety of application methods and relatively low risk to nontarget organisms have resulted in this class dominating the insecticide market ...

Behaviour of neonicotinoids in contrasting soils [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Management, 2020 Neonicotinoids are widely used to control insect pests in agriculture. Their presence in the environment can affect the health of non-target insects and aquatic animals. The behaviour of four neonicotinoids, namely imidacloprid, acetamiprid, thiacloprid and thiamethoxam, has been investigated in soils with contrasting characteristics to understand ...

Monitoring of neonicotinoid pesticides in beekeeping [PDF]
Natural Product Research, 2016 The decline of pollinating species is correlated to the extensive use of neonicotinoids against pest insects for crop protection. In this study, the concentrations of neonicotinoid insecticides were determined in honeybees, honeycomb and honey samples, collected in Spring 2015 (blooming period) from different areas in Sicily (IT), to carry out an ...

Neonicotinoid Poisoning and Management
Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2019 Neonicotinoids are a newer class of insecticides, which act on postsynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine esterase receptors. Its use is gradually increasing over recent years due to its better safety profile compared to other commonly used pesticides like organophosphates, organochlorides, carbamates, and pyrethroids.

A worldwide survey of neonicotinoids in honey [PDF]
Science, 2017 From bees to honey Neonicotinoid pesticides are applied globally. Concern about their impacts has been increasing as evidence for negative effects on bee health and persistence has accumulated. Mitchell et al. looked at the prevalence of these pesticides in honey from across the world and found traces in ...
