“…This was supported by the observation that the pesticide reduced foraging activity (number of head orientations) of the predators but only in the low-latitude populations. While many studies reported reduced predation rates in the presence of contaminants, very few tried to identify the underlying changes in the behaviors of predators and prey (reviewed in Fleeger et al 2003; but see, e.g., Junges et al 2012). While the pesticide also affected all scored behaviors of the mosquito larvae, this apparently did not change their overall vulnerability to damselfly predators.…”

How evolution may mitigate the effects of global warming and pesticide exposure on predator–prey interactions is directly relevant for vector control. Using a space‐for‐time substitution approach, we addressed how 4°C warming and exposure to the pesticide endosulfan shape the predation on Culex pipiens mosquitoes by damselfly predators from replicated low‐ and high‐latitude populations. Although warming was only lethal for the mosquitoes, it reduced predation rates on these prey. Possibly, under warming escape speeds of the mosquitoes increased more than the attack efficiency of the predators. Endosulfan imposed mortality and induced behavioral changes (including increased filtering and thrashing and a positional shift away from the bottom) in mosquito larvae. Although the pesticide was only lethal for the mosquitoes, it reduced predation rates by the low‐latitude predators. This can be explained by the combination of the evolution of a faster life history and associated higher vulnerabilities to the pesticide (in terms of growth rate and lowered foraging activity) in the low‐latitude predators and pesticide‐induced survival selection in the mosquitoes. Our results suggest that predation rates on mosquitoes at the high latitude will be reduced under warming unless predators evolve toward the current low‐latitude phenotype or low‐latitude predators move poleward.

“…Laboratory studies allowed to observe trifloxystrobin toxic effects on amphibians (JUNGES et al, 2012), crustaceans such as Daphnia magna (OCHOA-ACUNA et al, 2009) and Hyalella azteca (MORRISON et al, 2013), and fishes (USEPA, 2013). Fish may be present in rice fields by entering through the irrigation water or when they are added aiming ricefish culture (LAWLER, 2001).…”

Impact of fungicide and insecticide use on non-target aquatic organisms in rice paddy fields

The intensive use of plant protection products in rice paddy fields ( Oryza sativa L.) has caused concern about the environmental impact on communities of non-target organisms that are natural inhabitants in these agroecosystems. The purpose of this review is to analyze the data currently available in the literature about some important fungicides and insecticides (such as trifloxystrobin, tebuconazole, tricyclazole, lambda-cyhalothrin, and thiamethoxam), which are currently used to control pests and diseases in rice paddy fields, as well as their effects on the community of non-target aquatic organisms.

“…Trifloxystrobin is nontoxic to birds, mammals, bees, other beneficial insects and earthworms, but is classified as a highly toxic chemical to non-target aquatic organisms (Junges et al, 2012;Shen et al, 2014). For instance, it shows potential toxic effect on algae by inhibition of cell growth, altering membrane permeability, affecting mRNA transcription and inducing oxidative damage (Shen et al, 2014).…”
