| Abstract | ||||
| The Effect of chronic application of sublethal concentration of molluscicides, bayluscide (0.05 -0.025 ppm) and trifenmorph (0.25 - 0.125 ppm) on the glycogen and protein content of Biomp < /em>ha/aria alexandrina was determined. Bayluscide and trifenmorph produced significant reduction in the glycogen content of Biompha/aria alexandrina, but a significant decrease in the protein content of the snails was not apparent until after 4 weeks of continuous exposure. The results indicate that the molluscicides may exert their primary molluscicidal action on the carbohydrate metabolism of the snails.The both molluscicides significantly reduced the gain in shell diameter of thesnails. | ||||
