Should we have a common model plant-soil ecosystem?
Especially ecotoxicology, I think, could profit a lot from that.

#Taraxacum #officinale (#Cichorieae) is native to Eurasia; it serves as a #pollensource for numerous insects and also is #indicatorplant for #calcium/#potassium. Its parts are relevant #foodsources. In their studies in Armenia B. Babayan et al. (2025) found concentrations of #heavymetals in the #soil leading to #DNApolymorphisms and thus being well-suited as a #bioindicator for #ecotoxicology.

Ecotoxicology is the scientific study of the effects of toxic chemicals on biological organisms, specifically at the population, community, and ecosystem levels. The field integrates toxicology and ecology to assess how natural and synthetic pollutants disrupt biological functions, impact biodiversity, and alter ecological dynamics.

The short documentary 'Parkinson tóxico' (in Spanish, but you can add translated subtitles) reveals the connection between pesticides and Parkinson. It is part of a campaign to recognize pesticide-derived Parkinson, one of worlds quickest growing neurodegenerative diseases, as a workplace hazard for farmers and fieldworkers (and of course, to reduce pesticide use).

CW: Bad news: pesticides. But an very good approach to calculate ecological toxicity
RE: https://eupolicy.social/@Akshay/116192439506710815
"To determine global pesticide risk, the study researchers looked at data on pesticide use from 2013 to 2019 in 65 nations that collectively represent nearly 80% of global crop acreage. They then combined these statistics with data on the toxicity of 625 pesticides for eight different species groups, including aquatic invertebrates and plants, fish, pollinating insects, soil organisms, and terrestrial arthropods, plants and vertebrates."
This TAT [total applied toxicity] is a very good approach to measure ecotoxicity. This is very important since the often used "tons of pesticides applied" is quite useless when we are talking about substances with highly varying toxicity. 👌
Of many pesticides, we do not really know the toxicity, or there is a lack of scientific consensus because the agrochemical corporations play dirty and have an army of paid pseudo-scientists. Additionally, toxicological studies focus mainly on acute toxicity on humans and not on long-term adverse health effects or the effects of combinations of different pollutants. And the toxicity for ecosystem functions is seldom even considered.
May this TAT help us to not underestimate toxicity so much.@mongabay 🌱

📢 New paper out in Ecotoxicology! 🪲🌿
We tested whether a common glyphosate-based weed killer harms European earwigs.
🧪 Despite exposure to high doses, we found no major effects on maternal care, development, or immunity.
This surprising resilience raises new questions: Why are earwigs so tolerant to chemical pollution?
