Neonicotinoid-containing insecticide disruption of growth, locomotion, and fertility in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Neonicotinoids, a class of insecticides structurally similar to nicotine that target biting and sucking insects, are the most widely used insecticides today, in part due to their supposed low toxicity in other organisms. However, a growing body of research has found that even low doses of neonicotin...
