Journal ArticleDOI
The toxicity of Roundup Original Max to 13 species of larval amphibians.
Rick A. Relyea,Devin K. Jones +1 more
TL;DR: Tests of lethal concentrations estimated to kill 50% of a population after 96 h (LC5096‐h) on a wider diversity of species from both eastern and western North America are conducted, substantially increases the available data on amphibian sensitivity to glyphosate formulations that include either POEA surfactant or the equally moderately to highly toxic surfactants of Roundup Original Max.
Journal ArticleDOI
Very highly toxic effects of endosulfan across nine species of tadpoles: Lag effects and family‐level sensitivity
TL;DR: Results from the present study provide valuable data to assess the impact of endosulfan on a globally declining group of vertebrates and appear to exist among families, with Bufonidae being least susceptible, Hylidae being moderately susceptible, and Ranidae being most susceptible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salinization triggers a trophic cascade in experimental freshwater communities with varying food-chain length
William D. Hintz,Brian M. Mattes,Matthew S. Schuler,Devin K. Jones,Aaron B. Stoler,Lovisa Lind,Rick A. Relyea +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that the presence of fish and high salt had a negative synergistic effect on the zooplankton community, which in turn caused an increase in phytoplankon, indicating that globally increasing concentrations of road salt can alter community structure via both direct and indirect effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competitive stress can make the herbicide Roundup® more deadly to larval amphibians
TL;DR: It is found that increased tadpole density caused declines in tadpole growth, but also made the herbicide significantly more lethal to one species, confirming the results of a previous study and raising important questions about exposure risk in natural systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Roundup® and amphibians: The importance of concentration, application time, and stratification
TL;DR: The present study demonstrates the importance of examining multiple applications times and frequencies to understand the impacts of pesticides on organisms and discovered that temperature stratification caused herbicide stratification, with higher concentrations near the surface.
