“…Although, pesticides are intended to protect crops, they may affect non-target organisms and contaminate soil environment resulting in alterations the equilibrium of soil processes for shorter or longer periods. TU, CM [8] and Miles, J.R.W., 1976 studied that pesticides reaching the soil affect non target organisms and their activities. To examine these side effects, several investigations are necessary to identify possible changes in the bioactivity of soil organisms contributing to soil fertility.…”

“…The enzyme, arylamidase [α-aminoacyl-peptide hydrolase (microsomal) EC 3.4.11.2], catalyzes the hydrolysis of N-terminal amino acid of the peptides, amides, or arylamides. Because of the presence of such substrates in the soils, it is likely that this enzyme is associated with the N mineralization (Tu and Miles 1976;AcostaMartinez and Tabatabai 2000;Srinivasulu and Rangaswamy 2013). Arylamidase is widely distributed in the tissues and body fluids of all animals (Tu and Miles 1976;Hiwada et al 1980), plants, and microorganisms (Appel 1974).…”

“…O n t h e o t h e r h a n d , m y r o s i n a s e (thioglucosideglucohydrolase; EC 3.2.3.1) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes the glucosinolates to D-glucose and allelochemicals that have the biological potential to suppress the germination of weed seeds and some pathogens in the soil (Tu and Miles 1976;Angus et al 1994;Brown and Morra 1997). Myrosinase is, thus, the fundamental factor for allelochemical expression derived from the glucosinolates and, hence, its study in the soil is of interest.…”

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of two insecticides, namely, acetamiprid and carbofuran on the enzymatic activities of arylamidase (as glucose formed from sinigrin) and myrosinase (as β-naphthylamine formed from L-leucine β-naphthylamide) in the black and red clay soils collected from a fallow groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) fields in the Anantapur District, Andhra Pradesh, India. The study was realized within the framework of the laboratory experiments in which the acetamiprid and carbofuran were applied to the soils at different doses (1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0 kg ha(-1)). Initially, the physicochechemical properties of the soil samples were analyzed. After 10 days of pesticide application, the soil samples were analyzed for the enzyme activities. Acetamiprid and carbofuran stimulated the arylamidase and myrosinase activities at lower concentrations after 10 days incubation. Striking stimulation in soil enzyme activities was noticed at 2.5 kg ha(-1), persists for 20 days in both the soils. Overall, higher concentrations (5.0-10.0 kg ha(-1)) of acetamiprid and carbofuran were toxic or innocuous to the arylamidase and myrosinase activities. Nevertheless, the outcomes of the present study clearly indicate that the use of these insecticides (at field application rates) in the groundnut fields (black and red clay soils) stimulated the enzyme (arylamidase and myrosinase) activities.
