Title

AVOIDANCE BEHAVIOUR OF Eisenia foetida AS A TOOL FOR ECO-TOXICOLOGICAL TESTING OF PESTICIDES

Abstract

To feed the growing human population, there is need of mechanization and extensive use of pesticides and inorganic fertilizers. Earthworms act as “friends of farmers” by increasing the fertility of soil. Earthworm avoidance test involves use of “dual compartment system” to analyse avoidance of chemicals for 48 hours by Eisenia foetida (ISO, 2005). A significant avoidance was recorded at high concentration of chlorpyrifos while a non-significant avoidance of glyphosate was observed in all concentration by Eisenia foetida. This avoidance was attributed to rupture of chemoreceptor pathway of earthworm.

Key Words

Eisenia foetida, chlorpyrifos, glyphosate, avoidance behaviour, soil.
