Glyphosate versus glyphosate based ionic liquids: Effect of cation on glyphosate biodegradation, soxA and phnJ genes abundance and microbial populations changes during soil bioaugmentation.

The applicability of herbicidal ionic liquids (HILs) as an alternative form of herbicides is currently evaluated. Yet, the available research is lacking information on the behaviour of herbicidal ionic liquids upon addition to the environment, i.e.
