Impact/Purpose:
Ecotoxicological testing to assess the effects of plant protection products on non-target terrestrial plants (NTTPs) under greenhouse conditions is conducted according to standard guidelines such as OECD 208 [1] and OECD 227 [2]. EFSA’s Scientific Opinion of 2014 [3] on the risk assessment of plant protection products (PPP) for non-target terrestrial plants raised awareness of a potential need to assess effects on plant reproduction, e.g. seed production.
