Abstract
The present study showed that the glyphosate is toxic and causes behavioral changes in Labeio rohita. The LC50, values of glyphosate conducted to be as 0.018 ml/l; 0.015; m1/1; 0.012 m1/1 and 0.010 m1/1 at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. A thick coat of mucus over the body and loss of stability noticed may be due to none functioning of the brain. The colors of the tested fishes appeared little pale as compared to the normal fishes. Hyper excitability followed by lethargy was observed by the jerky and random movement of fishes just after the addition of toxicants. Due to the low rate of oxygen uptake, fishes came to the surface to engulf air frequently. Herbicides, commonly employed to control unwanted vegetation in crops, can enter water bodies through runoff, leading to unintended consequences for aquatic ecosystems.
