Low ethanol concentrations occur naturally in the environment, particularly in fermenting fruits and flower nectar, where pollinators such as honey bees may encounter it. This study aimed to investigate the potential hormetic effects of low-level ethanol consumption on honey bees. Bees were divided into three groups: one provided with only sucrose solution, one both with sucrose and 0.5% ethanol in sucrose, and one with only 1% ethanol in sucrose. The bees were exposed to these diets for 14 days, and their performance was assessed through survivorship, flight endurance, body mass, lipid content, and trehalose and ethanol levels in the haemolymph. The results showed no significant differences in most parameters between the groups. However, bees constantly exposed to 1% ethanol had slightly higher trehalose levels compared to the control group, suggesting a possible adaptive response to ethanol exposure. Ethanol levels in the haemolymph differed significantly between groups, with bees exposed to ethanol showing detectable levels in their system. While no clear hormetic effects were observed in terms of improved performance, the elevated trehalose levels in bees constantly exposed to 1% ethanol may indicate adaptations protecting bees from ethanol-induced damage.

Given the ecological significance of rice cultivation areas (paddy fields) and the public health importance of these mosquito species, the research sought to understand how exposure to varying herbicide doses affects mosquito survival. The research utilized a laboratory strain of Ae. aegypti and both laboratory and field strains of Cx. pipiens mosquitoes, exposing them to three distinct doses of herbicides: the recommended application rate, and doses that were two and four times higher. Toxicity tests were conducted following the World Health Organization guidelines. Adult emergence inhibition rates (%) were recorded after exposing larvae of different developmental stages; early (first-second instar) and late (third-fourth instar) to the tested herbicides. Oxadiazon consistently showed higher toxicity to mosquitoes compared to other herbicides across all tested doses, causing up to 91.67% inhibition of adult emergence. Quinclorac also demonstrated notable toxicity, but to a lesser extent and primarily in Ae. aegypti. The remaining herbicides exhibited low or no significant insecticidal effects. Notably, early-stage larvae were more susceptible across the experiments. These findings suggest that while some herbicides used in paddy fields have a minimal impact on mosquitoes, oxadiazon, in particular, poses a significant risk. Understanding these interactions can aid in developing integrated pest management strategies that consider both crop protection and mosquito control, emphasizing the need for judicious herbicide use in ecologically sensitive environments.</p>","PeriodicalId":11497,"journal":{"name":"Ecotoxicology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144207998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Insecticides are of particular concern due to their toxicity and persistence, entering water bodies through runoff, leaching, and atmospheric deposition, and posing risks to aquatic organisms, especially fish. Since these compounds often occur in mixtures, studying their combined effects is essential for understanding their ecological impact. The insecticides λ-cyhalothrin (LC) and imidacloprid (IMI) are widely used in agriculture alone and in mixtures. They have been detected in surface waters and sediments near agricultural areas, raising concerns about their effects on aquatic organisms. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of sublethal concentrations (0.08% of LC<sub>50-96h</sub>) of LC (0.15 μg L<sup>-1</sup>) and IMI (100 μg L<sup>-1</sup>), alone and in a binary mixture (LC+IMI), on the embryo-larval stage of Danio rerio, over 96 h of post-fertilization exposure (hpf). The results demonstrated that LC, IMI, and MIX caused an increase in embryonic mortality at 24 hpf. In addition, IMI increased DNA damage and decreased the larval hatching rate after 72 hpf. Furthermore, the mixture, in addition to causing a decrease in the larval hatching rate, increased lipid peroxidation and glutathione concentrations after 96 hpf. Thus, we conclude that these insecticides harm the early stages of D. rerio. Their toxicity is increased when they are mixed, since exposure to MIX was the one that most affected the embryonic phase. These effects, observed in a model species, indicate a relevant ecological risk, as they may compromise the survival of fish populations and, consequently, affect the structure and balance of aquatic ecosystems where these compounds are present.</p>","PeriodicalId":11497,"journal":{"name":"Ecotoxicology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144141672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated the effects of clothianidin (CL), a commonly used agricultural insecticide, on the freshwater alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The toxic effect of CL depended on both the number of cells and the concentration of the insecticide. Generally, an observed dose-dependent decrease was evident in cell growth, chlorophyll (Chl) content, and photosynthetic efficiency, while carotenoid levels increased. Particular attention has been paid to the ability of C. reinhardtii to survive exposure to lethal concentrations of the CL, which resulted in a 60% decrease in cell number and pronounced Chl bleaching. After the photosynthetic activity had been reduced to almost zero, some cells showed the ability to restore the function of photosynthetic electron transport in a medium containing CL. The algae's resilience is linked to their bioremediation capacity, as evidenced by a 50% reduction in CL concentration (from 0.8 to 0.4 mg/L) within 10 days of exposure. Repeated CL treatments induced resistance in algae, yet this was only observed when the Chl concentration per cell recovered to the control level (2.7 pg Chl/cell).

Analysis of the gut contents of 223 perch indicated that the main food item of perch aged 4-6+ years is the lake form of European smelt (80-100%). Also, the lowest THg concentrations were observed in perch aged 4-5+ and 6+ years - 160 ± 47 and 172 ± 51 ng/g (wet weight), respectively.

Among the numerous human-induced pressures threatening terrestrial ecosystems globally, microplastics (MPs) represent one of the most persistent and urgent concerns. This study investigated the effects of heat stress (HS) at 35 °C and 40 °C (12 h exposure) on wheat (Triticum aestivum) and maize (Zea mays) grown in soil contaminated with polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs; 0.01%, 0.1%, and 1% w/w), assessing their physiological and biochemical responses. The results indicated a significant (p < 0.05) reduction in plant height, root length, leaf area, chlorophyll content, and biomass of the selected plants due to MPs application. HS alone and in co-exposure with MPs caused damage to plant tissues as shown by significant (p < 0.05) reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and lipid peroxidation. Under ROS induction, proline and antioxidant enzymes (CAT, POD, SOD) exhibited significantly (p < 0.05) higher levels in combined stress (HS + MPs) than in individual treatments. In conclusion, wheat exhibited higher levels of H2O2 and MDA stress markers indicating increased oxidative stress compared to maize. In contrast, maize showed elevated levels of proline, CAT, POD, and SOD, suggesting greater resistance to environmental stresses than wheat. Our results provide new understandings of sustainable agriculture practices and hold vast promise in addressing the challenges of HS and MP stresses in agricultural soils.</p>","PeriodicalId":11497,"journal":{"name":"Ecotoxicology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143987279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
