The enantioselective bioaccumulation and toxicity of dinotefuran in earthworms were studied in this study. The results showed that S-dinotefuran accumulated faster than Rac-dinotefuran and R-dinotefuran in earthworms. The acute toxicity of S-dinotefuran was 1.49 and 2.67 times that of the Rac-dinotefuran and R-dinotefuran in artificial soil during 14 days of exposure. At 1.0 mg/kg, the three tested chemicals inhibited the growth and reproduction as well as induced oxidative stress effects in earthworms; however, the toxic effects induced by S-dinotefuran were the most serious. The transcriptome sequencing results showed that S-dinotefuran had stronger interactions to biomacromolecules and influences on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) than R-dinotefuran, which may be the main reason for enantioselectivities between the two enantiomers. The present results indicated that the risk of S-dinotefuran was higher than that of Rac-dinotefuran and R-dinotefuran in the soil environment to earthworms. Risk assessment of dinotefuran should be evaluated at the enantiomer level.
