The effects of metribuzin on early life stages of common carp (Cyprinus carpio)
چکیده انگلیسی

Metribuzin belongs to the triazine group of herbicides, which are frequently used in agriculture. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of metribuzin on growth and development of early life stages of fish. Subchronic toxic effects of metribuzin at concentrations of 0.9, 4, 14, and 32 mg/L on embryos and larvae of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) were investigated during a 30 day toxicity test under experimental conditions. Exposure to metribuzin at 32 mg/L was associated with increased mortality. Negative effects on total body length, weight, and inhibition of specific growth rate were induced by all experimental concentrations. Length and weight parameters were the most sensitive. The negative impact of metribuzin was observed in the highest tested concentration beginning on day 6 of exposure. Retardation of early ontogeny was associated with concentrations ⩾4 mg/L. Histological examination revealed changes in liver and caudal kidney after 30 days exposure to 32 mg/L. Based on growth parameters, development, and histological examination, the Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC) value was 0.9 mg/L.

Negative effects of metribuzin on total body length and weight were induced by all experimental concentrations (0.9, 4, 14, and 32 mg/L).Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slideHighlights
► Impact of metribuzin in surface waters on fish under experimental conditions.
► Subchronic toxic effects on embryos and larvae of carp during a 30 day test.
► Effects on length, weight, early ontogeny and histological changes were found.
