Description
Summary:This study was conducted as a part of the MULTICLIM project (project number 280843; ttps://www.mn.uio.no/ibv/english/research/sections/aqua/research-projects/144612/) financed by the Research Council of Norway. Survival of early life stages is critical for population growth. Understanding the vulnerability of these sensitive stages can therefore improve ecological risk predictions. The globally-used neonicotinoid insecticide imidacloprid does not degrade easily in soil and occurs at concentrations potentially toxic to non-target soil organisms, such as Collembola. Here, we studied the effects of dietary exposure to imidacloprid on the survival of juveniles in an arctic and a temperate population of Folsomia quadrioculata (Collembola), a commonly-occurring litter-dwelling species in the Northern Hemisphere. The exposure lasted from <24 h to 30 d since hatching at 15C. We assessed whether (1) the arctic population with faster development rates could be more vulnerable than the temperate population, (2) ...
