Reducing lead uptake by plants as a way to lead-free food
In this research, an attempt was made to produce safe food from lead-contaminated soil. It was assumed that an increased amount of calcium (Ca) in plants would prevent them from lead (Pb) uptake. A new-generation agricultural product − an activator of Ca

The need to develop a capability to evaluate the environmental effects of chemicals has arisen principally from these situations. The source of the chemical is identified and quantified, as are the distribution, transport and transformation processes whereby the response of individuals in the environment can be evaluated.

Can we predict community-wide effects of herbicides from toxicity tests on macrophyte species? [PDF]
Macrophyte communities play an essential role in the way freshwater ecosystems function. It is thus of great concern to understand how environmental factors, especially anthropogenic ones, influence their composition and diversity.

Experimental evolution reveals high insecticide tolerance in Daphnia inhabiting farmland ponds [PDF]
Exposure of nontarget populations to agricultural chemicals is an important aspect of global change. We quantified the capacity of natural Daphnia magna populations to locally adapt to insecticide exposure through a selection experiment involving ...
