Insecticides treated soils were found to emit less CO2, indicating reduced soil
respiration (Subarna et.al., 2023).
Soil Respiration:
Chemical Parameters: Determined by acid-base
titration method.
• Soil pH: Determined by • 40 g soil incubated at 30
soil-water suspension degree C in sealed jar with
method. 5 ml 0.5 N NaOH.
• Electrical Conductivity Chemical Parameters and • NaOH transferred to flask
(EC): Measured after Soil Respiration and titrated with 0.5 N HCl
allowing soil-water at different time intervals
suspension to stand for 24 (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21
hours. days).
• Organic Carbon: Analyzed
using Walkley and Black
method.
Materials and Methods
Methodology for Spiking Soil with Flonicamid:
• Mother stock solution: Dissolve 20 g of Flonicamid 50% WG in 1L of
distilled water (10000 ppm).
Calculation of Flonicamid • Prepare a 25 ppm solution by adding 0.25 ml of mother stock
solution to 99.75 ml of water.
Doses and Methodology • Calculate the required amount for each dose and add it to 96.80 ml of
water.
• Apply the solutions to soil-filled containers and keep them at room
temperature.
Flonicamid Doses:
• JIH: Half of Recommended Dose (HRD) at Jaguli Instructional Farm
• JIRD: Recommended Dose (RD) at Jaguli Instructional Farm
• JIDRD: Double of Recommended Dose (DRD) at Jaguli Instructional Farm
• CRGH: Half of Recommended Dose (HRD) at Central Research Farm
• CRGRD: Recommended Dose (RD) at Central Research Farm
• CRGDRD: Double of Recommended Dose (DRD) at Central Research Farm.
Materials and Methods
Isolation Procedure of Total Bacteria, Fungi, and Actinomycetes from Soil:
Ten grams of sieved soil were mixed with 90 ml of sterile water in a conical flask and serial dilutions (10-1 to
10-6) were prepared by shaking vigorously.
Fungi were isolated from dilutions 10-3 and 10-4, actinomycetes from dilutions 10-4 and 10-5, and bacteria
from dilutions 10-5 and 10-6.
Transferred to sterilized petri plates, and growth media were poured into the plates. Petri plates were incubated
at 28°C.
Sterile petri plates were taken, and soil suspension was aseptically transferred to each plate with hot media.
Plates were rotated to evenly spread the suspension and media.
The petri plates were labeled, inverted, and incubated at 30 ± 1°C for 7 days.
Thornton’s agar media, Martin’s Rose-Bengal Media and Jensen’s Agar media was prepared for isolation of
bacteria, fungus and actinomycetes respectively
