Environmental contaminants and insects: Genetic strategies for ecosystem and agricultural sustainability
Insects, with their vast biodiversity and essential ecological roles, are crucial to agriculture, textile production, and environmental stability. As pollinators, decomposers, and bioindicators, they support ecosystem functions and human industries. Their short generation time, high reproductive rates, and genetic adaptability make them valuable models for studying human diseases like cancer. However, contaminants pose significant threats to industrially important insects, impacting ecosystems and industries alike. Excessive pesticide use disrupts ecological balance, contributing to the global decline of insect populations. Understanding how contaminants affect insect physiology is critical for assessing their broader implications on agriculture, food security, and biodiversity. This interdisciplinary review integrates entomology, genetics, and environmental science to explore these impacts. Additionally, it examines the potential of genetic interventions to mitigate contaminant-induced harm, ensuring the sustainability of insect-mediated services. To safeguard these vital species, a comprehensive approach that integrates conservation and sustainable utilization strategies is essential.
期刊介绍:
The Science of the Total Environment is an international journal dedicated to scientific research on the environment and its interaction with humanity. It covers a wide range of disciplines and seeks to publish innovative, hypothesis-driven, and impactful research that explores the entire environment, including the atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and anthroposphere.
The journal's updated Aims & Scope emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary environmental research with broad impact. Priority is given to studies that advance fundamental understanding and explore the interconnectedness of multiple environmental spheres. Field studies are preferred, while laboratory experiments must demonstrate significant methodological advancements or mechanistic insights with direct relevance to the environment.
