Abstract
Cyclobutrifluram (TYMIRIUM® technology) is a seed- and soil-applied nematicide and fungicide which protects the plant root mass. Cyclobutrifluram acts by inhibiting mitochondrial complex II electron transport and succinate dehydrogenase inhibition (SDHI). Concerns over the potential adverse effects on non-target species were addressed by assessing whether recommended field application rates of cyclobutrifluram would result in adverse impacts on soil invertebrates or honeybees. Studies conducted under laboratory conditions with the active ingredient and two formulations provided No Observed Effect Concentrations for earthworm (Eisenia andreii) reproduction of 71–171 mg a.i./kg dry soil with no effects on soil mite (Hypoaspis aculifier) reproduction. There were no effects on honeybee (Apis mellifera) adults or larvae following chronic exposure to doses up to 400 and 160 mg/kg diet respectively. Using Brazil as a target market (soybean seed treatment and in-furrow application in fruiting vegetables), our laboratory studies indicate that the risk to two species of soil invertebrates and honeybees of the use of cyclobutrifluram either in-furrow or as a seed treatment was orders of magnitude below any levels of concern.
期刊介绍:
The Editors of Crop Protection especially welcome papers describing an interdisciplinary approach showing how different control strategies can be integrated into practical pest management programs, covering high and low input agricultural systems worldwide. Crop Protection particularly emphasizes the practical aspects of control in the field and for protected crops, and includes work which may lead in the near future to more effective control. The journal does not duplicate the many existing excellent biological science journals, which deal mainly with the more fundamental aspects of plant pathology, applied zoology and weed science. Crop Protection covers all practical aspects of pest, disease and weed control, including the following topics:
-Abiotic damage-
Agronomic control methods-
Assessment of pest and disease damage-
Molecular methods for the detection and assessment of pests and diseases-
Biological control-
Biorational pesticides-
Control of animal pests of world crops-
Control of diseases of crop plants caused by microorganisms-
Control of weeds and integrated management-
Economic considerations-
Effects of plant growth regulators-
Environmental benefits of reduced pesticide use-
Environmental effects of pesticides-
Epidemiology of pests and diseases in relation to control-
GM Crops, and genetic engineering applications-
Importance and control of postharvest crop losses-
Integrated control-
Interrelationships and compatibility among different control strategies-
Invasive species as they relate to implications for crop protection-
Pesticide application methods-
Pest management-
Phytobiomes for pest and disease control-
Resistance management-
Sampling and monitoring schemes for diseases, nematodes, pests and weeds.
