Toxicity of the herbicide glyphosate to golden apple snail (Pomacea sp.)

Acute toxicity tests were conducted using adult golden apple snails (Pomacea sp.) as test organisms. Percent mortality of snails was determined by exposing the snails for 96 hours to different concentrations of Glyphosate (10-50 mg/1). The 96 hour LC50 of Glyphosate was estimated by using the Trimme...
