Influence of selected insecticides on phosphatase activity in groundnut (Arachis hypogeae L.) soils.

Abstract:

:Selected insecticides, Chloropyrifos, Dichlorovos, Methyl parathion, Phorate and Methomyl, at concentrations ranging from 0 to 10 kg ha(-1) were tested for their non-target effects towards activity of phosphatases in two soils. In soil samples receiving 2.5 kg ha(-1) of the insecticides Dichlorovos, Phorate and Methomyl and also in soil samples receiving 5.0 kg ha(-1) of the insecticides, Chloropyrifos and Methyl parathion, the activity of phosphatase was significantly more at 20 days period of incubation and decreased progressively with increasing period of incubation.
