Cyantraniliprole
uptake, translocation, and distribution
in wheat
plants grown in hydroponics and soil conditions were investigated.
The hydroponics experiment indicated that cyantraniliprole was prone
to be absorbed by wheat roots mainly through the apoplastic pathway
and predominately distributed in the cell-soluble fraction (81.4–83.6%)
and ultimately transferred upward to leaves (TFleave/stem = 4.84 > TFstem/root = 0.67). In wheat-soil systems,
the uptake of cyantraniliprole was similar to that in hydroponics.
The accumulation of cyantraniliprole in wheat tissues was mainly affected
by the content of soil organic matter and clay, resulting in the increased
adsorption of cyantraniliprole onto soils (R
2 > 0.991, P < 0.01), and was positively
related to the concentration of cyantraniliprole in soil pore water
(R
2 > 0.991, P <
0.001).
Besides, the absorption of cyantraniliprole by wheat was predicted
well by the partition-limited model. These results increased our understanding
of the absorption and accumulation of cyantraniliprole in wheat and
were also helpful for guiding the practical application and risk evaluation
of cyantraniliprole.
