Content Warning
Pesticides affect a diverse range of non-target #species and may be linked to global #biodiversity loss.
For non-target #plants, #animals (invertebrate and vertebrates) and #microorganisms, there are negative responses of the growth, reproduction, behaviour and other physiological biomarkers within terrestrial and aquatic systems.
#Pesticides formulated for specific taxa negatively affected non-target groups, e.g. insecticidal neonicotinoids affecting amphibians.聽
