Selenium biofortification of pea (Pisum sativum L.) microgreens through seed priming: Effects on agronomic performance and nutritional quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) deficiency is a widespread nutritional problem. Agronomic biofortification of microgreens through seed nutripriming is a promising approach to enhance Se intake. Microgreens, comprising nutrient‐dense foods that can be produced year‐round, are ideal targets for biofortification and may help alleviate malnutrition. This

Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L.

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. strongly inhibit Euphorbia heterophylla L. germination and early seedling growth, but show mild phytotoxicity on mature plants, paradoxically promoting biomass via antioxidants. Abstract BACKGROUND The escalating challenge of herbicide‐resistant weeds, exemplified by Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Thirty years of glyphosate‐resistant crops and weeds: Current situation and future prospects

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Since 1996, when the first glyphosate‐resistant crop was commercialized and the first resistant weed was reported, resistance has expanded globally. This review analyzes emergence patterns across weed species, crops, regions, resistance mechanisms, and herbicides.

Lead-induced genotoxicity to Vicia faba L.roots in relation with metal cell uptake and initial speciation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Formation of organometallic complexes in soil solution strongly influence metals phytoavailability. However, only few studies deal with the influence of metalspeciation both on plant uptake and genotoxicity. In the present study, Viciafaba seedlings were
