ABSTRACT
The effect of Cypermethrin and
Lambda-cyhalothrin on the microbial diversity of agricultural soil at American
quarters around Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike, was
evaluated. Serial dilutions of the sample resulted in five bacterial isolate.
Five bacterial isolate used for this study were identified as Proteus species,
Klebsiella species, Bacillus species, E.coli, Streptococcus species. Isolated
organisms were subjected to three different concentrations of 100%, 50%, 25%
with 0% as the control concentration. The colonies of each bacterial isolate
were calculated using colony forming unit per gram. The result, showed that
bacterial isolate at higher concentration had more effect on the microbial
diversity of the soil while the lower concentration inhibits. This work
reviewed that the use pesticides at higher concentration could be detrimental
to soil microorganisms especially soil bacterial which play essential role in
bioremediation and maintenance of soil fertility.
