Article Synopsis
  • - A pot experiment in a greenhouse studied how DDT (a pesticide) breaks down in soils when rice and ryegrass are planted, showing that DDE/DDD levels increased slightly over time.
  • - In rice soil, DDT residues decreased to 70-80 ng/g by day 84, while the breakdown products DDD, DDMS, and DDMU rose significantly, indicating rapid transformation.
