Comparison of Corn and Rice Sensitivity to Cyanobacterial Extract and Anatoxin-a in Soil and Hydroponic Media [PDF]
PlantsCyanobacterial toxins (cyanotoxins) produced in harmful algal blooms are toxic to eukaryotic cells. Plants exposed to cyanotoxins through irrigation can accumulate toxins and have decreased yields, so an understanding of the effects of cyanotoxins on ...
