• No interactive effects of pesticides and plant diversity on soil microbial biomass and respiration (2009, background): “Studies investigating effects of pesticides on soil microorganisms reported conflicting results (Martikainen et al., 1998; Das and Mukherjee, 2000; López et al., 2002; Pandey and Singh, 2004; Cycon et al., 2006; Devare et al., 2007).”
• Transgenic Bt rice does not affect enzyme activities and microbial composition in the rhizosphere during crop development (2008, result): “The results are consistent with field-based experiment conducted with Cry3Bb Bt corn with and without tefluthrin insecticide (Devare et al., 2007).”
