Abstract
Unreasonable application of pesticides may result in residues in the environment and foods. Chiral pesticides consist of two or more enantiomers, which may exhibit different behaviors. This Review intends to provide progress on the enantioselective residues of chiral pesticides in foods. Among the main chiral analytical methods, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is the most frequently utilized. Most chiral pesticides are utilized as racemates; however, due to enantioselective dissipation, bioaccumulation, biodegradation, and chiral conversion, enantiospecific residues have been found in the environment and foods. Some chiral pesticides exhibit strong enantioselectivity, highlighting the importance of evaluation on an enantiomeric level. However, the occurrence characteristics of chiral pesticides in foods and specific enzymes or transport proteins involved in enantioselectivity needs to be further investigated. This Review could help the production of some chiral pesticides to single-enantiomer formulations, thereby reducing pesticide consumption as well as increasing food production and finally reducing human health risks.

Abstract
Excessive use of synthetic fertilizers cause economic burdens, increasing soil, water and atmospheric pollution. Nano-fertilizers have shown great potential for their sustainable uses in soil fertility, crop production and with minimum or no environmental tradeoffs. Nano-fertilizers are of submicroscopic sizes, have a large surface area to volume ratio, can have nutrient encapsulation, and greater mobility hence they may increase plant nutrient access and crop yield. Due to these properties, nano-fertilizers are regarded as deliverable 'smart system of nutrients'. However, the problems in the agroecosystem are broader than existing developments. For example, nutrient delivery in different physicochemical properties of soils, moisture, and other agro-ecological conditions is still a challenge. In this context, the present review provides an overview of various uses of nanotechnology in agriculture, preference of nano-fertilizers over the conventional fertilizers, nano particles formation, mobility, and role in heterogeneous soils, with special emphasis on the development and use of chitosan-based nano-fertilizers.

Abstract
Soil ecotoxicological assays on nanoparticles (NPs) have mainly investigated single components (e.g., plants, fauna, and microbes) within the ecosystem, neglecting possible effects resulting from the disturbance of the interactions between these components. Here, we investigated soil microbial responses to CeO2 NPs in the presence and absence of earthworms from the perspectives of microbial functions (i.e., enzyme activities), the community structure, and soil metabolite profiles. Exposure to CeO2 NPs (50, 500 mg/kg) alone decreased the activities of enzymes (i.e., acid protease and acid phosphatase) participating in soil N and P cycles, while the presence of earthworms ameliorated these inhibitory effects. After the CeO2 NP exposure, the earthworms significantly altered the relative abundance of some microbes associated with the soil N and P cycles (Flavobacterium, Pedobacter, Streptomyces, Bacillus, Bacteroidota, Actinobacteria, and Firmicutes). This was consistent with the pattern found in the significantly changed metabolites which were also involved in the microbial N and P metabolism. Both CeO2 NPs and earthworms changed the soil bacterial community and soil metabolite profiles. Larger alterations of soil bacteria and metabolites were found under CeO2 NP exposure with earthworms. Overall, our study indicates that the top-down control of earthworms can drastically modify the microbial responses to CeO2 NPs from all studied biological aspects. This clearly shows the importance of the holistic consideration of all soil ecological components to assess the environmental risks of NPs to soil health.

Abstract
In this study, the residual status of four chiral pesticides including metalaxyl, napropamide, triticonazole, metconazole, and their enantiomers/stereoisomers were investigated in agricultural soils across China. The levels in the soils were detected as non-detected (n.d.)-16.67 ng/g for metalaxyl with a median of 0.14 ng/g; 0.004-32.99 ng/g for napropamide with a median of 0.29 ng/g; n.d.-207.39 ng/g for triticonazole with a median of 1.29 ng/g; and n.d.-71.83 ng/g for metconazole with a median of 1.03 ng/g, respectively. Enantiomer/stereoisomer-specific residues were observed for metalaxyl and triticonazole. R-Metalaxyl and R-triticonazole were identified as the major enantiomers in the soils for the two pesticides. There was no obvious enantioselective residue for napropamide in most of the soils. As for metconazole, metconazole-1 and metconazole-4 were identified as the major stereoisomers in the soils. These results suggest that enantiomer/stereoisomer-specific risk should be considered when assessing the ecological safety of these pesticides in soils.

Bioinspired Green Synthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles from a Native Bacillus cereus Strain RNT6: Characterization and Antibacterial Activity against Rice Panicle Blight Pathogens Burkholderia glumae and B. gladioli. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2021; 11:884. [PMID: 33808470 PMCID: PMC8065826 DOI: 10.3390/nano11040884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2021] [Accepted: 03/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Burkholderia glumae and B. gladioli are seed-borne rice pathogens that cause bacterial panicle blight (BPB) disease, resulting in huge rice yield losses worldwide. However, the excessive use of chemical pesticides in agriculture has led to an increase in environmental toxicity. Microbe-mediated nanoparticles (NPs) have recently gained significant attention owing to their promising application in plant disease control. In the current study, we biologically synthesize zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) from a native Bacillus cereus RNT6 strain, which was taxonomically identified using 16S rRNA gene analysis. The biosynthesis of ZnONPs in the reaction mixture was confirmed by using UV-Vis spectroscopy. Moreover, XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDS, and TEM analysis revealed the functional groups, crystalline nature, and spherical shape of ZnONPs with sizes ranging from 21 to 35 nm, respectively. Biogenic ZnONPs showed significant antibacterial activity at 50 µg mL-1 against B. glumae and B. gladioli with a 2.83 cm and 2.18 cm zone of inhibition, respectively, while cell numbers (measured by OD600) of the two pathogens in broth culture were reduced by 71.2% and 68.1%, respectively. The ultrastructure studies revealed the morphological damage in ZnONPs-treated B. glumae and B. gladioli cells as compared to the corresponding control. The results of this study revealed that ZnONPs could be considered as promising nanopesticides to control BPB disease in rice.
