Plant responses to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS): a molecular perspective

International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2023
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) constitute a large class of toxic manmade compounds that have been used in many industrial and household products. Dispersion of PFAS in the environment has raised concerns because of their persistence and toxicity for living organisms.
