Effects of selected pesticides on activities of invertase, amylase and microbial respiration in sandy soil

Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the effects of 39 pesticides on activities of invertase, amylase and respiration of microorganisms in a sandy soil. Results indicated that although pesticide tests showed some significant effects on activities of soil enzymes and respiration, the so...

Zusammenfassung:	Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the effects of 39 pesticides on activities of invertase, amylase and respiration of microorganisms in a sandy soil. Results indicated that although pesticide tests showed some significant effects on activities of soil enzymes and respiration, the soil microorganisms and enzymes can tolerate the toxicities of most pesticides currently in use.
