全球約有35%的食物產量,均依靠傳粉者例如蜜蜂等支撐而成。而甲蟲、蟻蛉等昆蟲則幫忙捕食蛀食農作物的害蟲,讓農作物得以健康成長。395Please respect copyright.PENANAzJQlSXICCU

在這個層面上,農作物所使用的化學殺蟲劑,究竟會否對益蟲造成傷害?395Please respect copyright.PENANAjpdBCR41e7

(圖2)Neonicotinoid insecticides為舊式殺蟲劑的一種,內含的Neonicotinoid物質會與昆蟲神經線內的NAChRs結合,引致昆蟲的神經系統癱瘓而致死。395Please respect copyright.PENANAmIv4QDyn76

因著其擁有對昆蟲無差別的攻擊特性,益蟲害蟲均會送命。395Please respect copyright.PENANAJUIRVQQ7JW
正因如此,全球均已有措施禁用此類殺蟲劑,以歐盟EU地區最為嚴厲。395Please respect copyright.PENANAybZoC2jfhK
395Please respect copyright.PENANAjlXwPex6cC
題外話,人類與昆蟲的NAChRs有著結構式的分別,所以殺蟲劑對人類的傷害相對上較細。395Please respect copyright.PENANAbIEH3D0aoH

(圖3)基於舊式殺蟲劑的禁用,新式殺蟲劑已開始廣泛使用。395Please respect copyright.PENANACGLLuyfC56

Butanolide and sulfoximine-based insecticides為兩款新式的殺蟲劑,但其殺害昆蟲的原理跟舊式一模一樣。395Please respect copyright.PENANAhAxM7G1PpZ
395Please respect copyright.PENANABR60DM3LAV
新式與舊式重大的分別在於其化學結構的不同,根據IRAC(Insecticide Resistance Action Committee)的分類方式,舊式殺蟲劑界定為4A組別,而新式殺蟲劑界定為4C及4D組別。395Please respect copyright.PENANAzuYkLjt52m
395Please respect copyright.PENANAC73zAfDiZ4
395Please respect copyright.PENANAbCi1sXbswY
(圖4)那麼新式殺蟲劑除化學分類組別的不同之外,對比舊式殺蟲劑還有甚麼過人之處呢?395Please respect copyright.PENANARgLZdz0mUz
395Please respect copyright.PENANAmU2xrQ56BN
395Please respect copyright.PENANAxOwt88lvxU
答案是接近沒有過人之處,它們對益蟲依舊造成傷害。395Please respect copyright.PENANATGs5Pnr7J4
395Please respect copyright.PENANATrCxc7F3d8
Flupyradifurone的穩定性與舊式殺蟲劑接近一樣,能長年積累在環境裡頭。395Please respect copyright.PENANAOGnAxPmQwN
395Please respect copyright.PENANAm1b2chDTC9
以蜜蜂為例,雖然低劑量不會對東方蜜蜂(Apis cerana)造成重大修亡,但同等劑量會引致西方蜜蜂(A. mellifera)大量死亡。395Please respect copyright.PENANAqqv0pUA1bX
395Please respect copyright.PENANAeJ02h4kCIW
相對上,另一款新式殺蟲劑Sulfoxaflor的穩定性則有所減低,2-3日後在大自然的濃度會減退50%。395Please respect copyright.PENANAgLBrL9jMCm
奈何它對蜜蜂生育率造成顯著的不良影響,歐洲熊蜂(B. terrestris)在低劑量的影響下,生蛋率及幼蟲孵化率分別下降31及40%。395Please respect copyright.PENANAEyzpsz5kHW
395Please respect copyright.PENANAk4wMQggBaF
395Please respect copyright.PENANAjkDQRqzKGO
顯然,新式化學殺蟲劑並沒有改善舊式殺蟲劑的問題。395Please respect copyright.PENANARXhUp9GILa
395Please respect copyright.PENANAINyCsOZeJb
在審核殺蟲劑安全性的時候,往往只會對數款昆蟲作出毒性的檢驗,但大自然的昆蟲品種何其之多,加上昆蟲本身的獨特性,對一款益蟲無害並不等於對另一款無害,因此難以評估真實對大自然的影響。395Please respect copyright.PENANAJDtpvLfBLI
395Please respect copyright.PENANAOnJnHbW9iQ
同時間,現有的評核制度並沒有估核對昆蟲往後的生育影響,這將是一道值得深思應否加進評核殺蟲劑安全性的條件之一。395Please respect copyright.PENANAB7pmj30AVG
