DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.126410
Abstract: Iron plaques have been found to limit the phytoremediation efficiency by reducing iron solubility, while chelating agents can increase the bioavailability of iron from Fe plaques to numerous terrestrial plants. However, the effects of chelating… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16757
Abstract: While some DNA methylation variants are transgenerationally stable in plants, DNA methylation modifications that are specifically induced by environmental exposure are typically transient and subject to resetting in germ lines, limiting the potential for transgenerational… read more here.

The Response of Duckweed Lemna minor to Microplastics and Its Potential Use as a Bioindicator of Microplastic Pollution
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Plants"
DOI: 10.3390/plants11212953
Abstract: Biomonitoring has become an indispensable tool for detecting various environmental pollutants, but microplastics have been greatly neglected in this context. They are currently monitored using multistep physico-chemical methods that are time-consuming and expensive, making the… read more here.
