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.

Risks of neonicotinoid insecticides to honeybees [PDF]

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2014
Abstract   The European honeybee, Apis mellifera, is an important pollinator of agricultural crops. Since 2006, when unexpectedly high colony losses were first reported, articles have proliferated in the popular press suggesting a range of possible causes and raising alarm over the general decline of ...

Toxicity of the insecticide sulfoxaflor alone and in combination with the fungicide fluxapyroxad in three bee species

Scientific Reports, 2021
The sulfoximine insecticide sulfoxaflor is regarded as a potential substitute for neonicotinoids that were recently banned in the EU due to their side effects on bees.

Data from: Neonicotinoids and ectoparasitic mites synergistically impact honeybees [PDF]

, 2019
The Western honeybee, Apis mellifera, is the most important managed pollinator globally and has recently experienced unsustainably high colony losses. Synergistic interactions among stressors are believed to be primarily responsible.

The Power of Drosophila melanogaster for Modeling Neonicotinoid Effects on Pollinators and Identifying Novel Mechanisms

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Neonicotinoids are the most widely used insecticides in the world and are implicated in the widespread population declines of insects including pollinators. Neonicotinoids target nicotinic acetylcholine receptors which are expressed throughout the insect

Fate of neonicotinoids in the environment : why bees are threatened

, 2022
Pollinators are vital for ecosystems, agriculture and the economy. Their population has been declining over several decades and the current situation is serious and of great concern. Multiple stressors are likely to have contributed to this, and exposure

Impact of Neonicotinoids to Aquatic Invertebrates—In Vitro Studies on Mytilus galloprovincialis: A Review

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The use of pesticides in agriculture has always had a strong impact on environmental contamination. Since the 1990s, neonicotinoids have grown increasingly more popular, targeting specific receptors for insects, especially bees, which is why the use of ...

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 ...

Treating wheat seeds with neonicotinoid insecticides does not harm the rhizosphere microbial community.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Wheat aphids damage wheat plants directly by feeding on them and indirectly by transmitting plant pathogenic viruses, both of which result in low yield and plant death.

Cross-resistance relationships between neonicotinoids and pymetrozine in Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae)

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Although cross-resistance between compounds in the same insecticide group is a frequently observed phenomenon, cross-resistance between groups that differ in structural and functional characteristics can be extremely unpredictable.
