    Recently, the resource insect protection team of the Bee Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences proved that the insecticides carbaryl and acetamiprid have different effects
    on the transcription and metabolism levels of bee larvae.
    The findings were published in
    Scientific Reports.
     
    The widespread use of pesticides in agricultural or semi-forested land increases the risk of exposure to bee larvae, while toxicological information on bee larvae remains limited
    .
    This study found that carbaryl and acetamiprid exhibit different effects
    on bee larvae at the transcriptional and metabolic levels.
    Long-term exposure to acetamiprid at no visible adverse effect concentration (NOAEC) has a very limited effect on worker bee larvae at the molecular level, and long-term exposure to carbaryl leads to transcriptional imbalances in genes associated with oxidative stress and disrupts a range of metabolic homeostasis, such as amino acid metabolism, purine and pyrimidine metabolism, and flavonoid and flavonol biosynthesis
    .
    This study provides new insights
    into the ecotoxicological effects of urethane and neonicotinoid insecticides on bee larvae.
     
    The research was supported
    by the Science and Technology Innovation Program of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS-ASTIP-2021-IAR), the Beijing Municipal Natural Science Foundation (6202032), and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (31802146).
