Article Synopsis
- Lolium perenne is a key species in various ecosystems and can be affected by chemical pollutants in the soil, which may lead to adjustments in its metabolism.
- A study using transcriptome analysis revealed that low levels of pollutants like glyphosate and tebuconazole influence critical gene expressions related to growth and stress responses, even without causing visible damage to the plants.
- Findings indicate that even sub-toxic levels of pesticides can disrupt cellular signaling and metabolic processes, highlighting the intricate relationships between molecular responses, carbohydrate dynamics, and hormonal signaling in plants.
