The Editorial outlines recent research advances in green insecticide research. Particular attention is devoted to studies shedding light on the modes of action and non-target toxicity of natural substances of plant origin. Research focusing on the development of new formulations (including those relating to nano-objects) to magnify the effectiveness and stability of green insecticides in the field represents key advances. Herein, a carefully reviewed selection of cutting edge articles about green pesticide development recently published in is presented. The impact of sub-lethal doses of green insecticides on insect behavioral traits is still overlooked, representing a timely challenge for further research.
该社论概述了绿色杀虫剂研究的最新进展。特别关注的是阐明植物源天然物质作用模式和非靶标毒性的研究。专注于开发新配方（包括与纳米物体相关的配方）以提高田间绿色杀虫剂的有效性和稳定性的研究代表了主要进展。本文精心挑选了最近发表在[期刊名称]上的有关绿色农药开发的前沿文章。亚致死剂量的绿色杀虫剂对昆虫行为特征的影响仍被忽视，这是进一步研究的一个及时挑战。
