“…The use of synthetic pesticides remains the principal technique for the control of pests and diseases in conventional agriculture, but it is acknowledged that agricultural production will be seriously threatened if sustainable techniques are not adopted. Many studies have shown that the intensive use of synthetic chemicals leads to irreversible damage to the structure and ecology of soil (Dabrowski et al, 2014;Saruchi et al, 2016), with negative effects on the microbiota (Asad et al, 2017;Bending et al, 2007;Yang et al, 2017). In contrast, there have been few studies and little is known concerning the impacts of botanical pesticides on soil microbiota (Fig.…”

Recent decades have witnessed major growth in the use of agrochemicals worldwide,for maximizing the food production for a rapidly growing human population. However, the indiscriminate use of these substances especially the pesticides has led to the accumulation of toxic residues in food, soil, air, and water, as well as the development of resistance in pests. Moreover, pesticides affect soil enzymes, which are essential catalysts that govern soil quality. In order to meet the food security, it is necessary to produce more food, sustainably and safely, in a diminishing area of available arable land and with decreased water resources. Given this situation, there is an increased interest in the use of alternative substances to synthetic agrochemicals that present less risk to the environment and human health while increasing the food safety. Promising results have been obtained using compounds derived from aromatic plants for the control of agricultural pests. Such compounds of botanical origin can be highly effective, with multiple mechanisms of action, while at the same time having low toxicity towards nontarget organisms. However, the large-scale application of these substances for pest control is limited by their poor stability and other technological issues. In this backdrop, the present work discusses perspectives for the use of compounds of botanical origin, as well as strategies employing the encapsulation techniques that can contribute to the development of systems for use in sustainable agricultural practices.

“…[1][2][3][4][5] Soil is an important component of environmental media for the transformation, migration and digestion of pesticide residues. 6 Study of the stereoselectivity behavior of chiral pesticides in the environmental media can provide a more accurate environmental risk evaluation. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] The complexity of the soil system determines the abundance of chiral factors in it, such as the microbial community structure and the enzyme system.…”

“…On the other hand, fertilizers, in particular urea and ammonium, decrease the soil pH, which negatively affects microorganisms and reduces the solubility of other nutrients. As far as pesticides are concerned, Asad et al 24 suggest that in most cases herbicides increase organic acid exudation, which results in the attraction of acidophilic microorganisms and stimulates denitrification. According to Srinivasulu and Ortiz, 25 pesticides, in low concentrations, stimulate bacterial populations, but are detrimental in combination with fungicides at higher doses.…”

The soil ecosystem is composed of a mixture of living organisms and non‐living matter as well as the complex interactions between them. In the past 100 years or so, agricultural soil ecosystems have been strongly affected by agricultural practices such as tillage and the use of pesticides and fertilizers, which strongly affect soil nutrient composition, pH and biodiversity. In modern pest management, however, the focus is gradually shifting from crop production through agricultural practices to soil ecosystem protection. In this review we discuss how the underground chemical signals secreted by plant roots play a role in keeping the soil ecosystem in balance and how they affect plant fitness by shaping the root biome, increasing nutrient availability, promoting symbiosis, and attracting beneficial organisms and repelling harmful ones, including other plants. We review a number of fascinating cases, such as signaling molecules with dual, positive and negative, functions and bacterial quorum sensing mimicking molecules. Finally, examples of how these compounds can be exploited in modern pest management are reviewed, and the prospects for future developments discussed. © 2019 The Authors.
