    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Kim Yeju; [2022]
    Keywords : gene expression; mixture effect; toxicity; pesticides; stress response;

    Abstract : Cyprodinil and pyraclostrobin are widely used pesticides to protect many plants from attack of microorganisms and fungal diseases. Although cyprodinil and pyraclostrobin exist in the aquatic environment at low concentration, their leftovers in the ecosystems lead to oxidative damage and interfere development in aquatic animals at environmental-relevant concentration.
