| Abstract | Propanil (3′,4′-dichloropropionanilide), the active ingredient in the herbicide Stam®M-4, is possibly the most extensively used herbicide for rice production in the world. Propanil and its metabolites are transported within characteristic ditch ecosystems in the production landscape of northeast Arkansas. Runoff from these ditch ecosystems is further transported to a river or other water body supplied by the Mississippi River Alluvial aquifer. Forty-eight–hour acute toxicity tests with Ceriodaphnia dubia (cladoceran) and Pimphales promelas (fathead minnow) were conducted on stormwater runoff, laboratory synthetic water, and irrigation (ground) water. No effects on survival were observed in this study following 48-h toxicity testing with the stormwater. Survival studies indicated assimilative capacity in irrigation (ground) water as opposed to laboratory synthetic water. Mean 48-h LC50s of C. dubia increased from 2.94 mg/L Stam®M-4 in laboratory synthetic water to 8.01 mg/L Stam®M-4 in irrigation water. Likewise, P. promelas mean 48-h LC50s increased from 23.76 (laboratory synthetic water) to 33.52 mg/L Stam®M-4 (ground water). In 7-d chronic tests, there was an increase in mean LC50s of C. dubia when comparing synthetic water to irrigation water (0.48 to 1.24 mg/L Stam®M-4, respectively). P. promelas, however, had less tolerance for Stam®M-4 in irrigation water (4.45 mg/L) than in synthetic water (5.93 mg/L) in 7-d chronic toxicity tests. Forty-eight–hour toxicity tests indicate that ground water affords organisms some assimilative capacity that laboratory synthetic water does not. Since herbicides and most other pesticides are manufactured to elicit rapid responses, 48-h toxicity results best describe potential nontarget organism effects in aquatic ecosystems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
