Effects of glyphosate and 2,4-D mixture on freshwater phytoplankton and periphyton communities: a microcosms approach
Glyphosate (G) and 2,4-D herbicides are massively applied in agriculture worldwide and the use of their mixture is currently a very common practice. We carried out two experiments using microcosms under laboratory conditions for 7 days each. In the first experiment, we analyzed changes in species co...

We carried out two experiments using microcosms under laboratory conditions for 7 days each.

Results showed that G was more toxic than 2,4-D to the algal fraction, decreasing chlorophyll a, turbidity and algal abundances in the phytoplankton experiment. The effects of the mixture on phytoplankton were mainly additive, except for total and Staurastrum sp. live abundances where an antagonistic effect between herbicides was recorded. Periphyton showed more resistance to the herbicides as it was less affected than phytoplankton by the active ingredients and commercial formulations. The high development of Leptolyngbya sp. due to the impact of the herbicide mixture on periphyton might represent the beginning of a more conspicuous community to prevent the impact of contaminants. The study of the impacts of herbicide mixtures on freshwater systems requires the analysis of several variables to better assess the responses of key microbial communities and to predict more realistic scenarios. © 2017 Elsevier Inc.
