New evidences of Roundup (glyphosate formulation) impact on the periphyton community and the water quality of freshwater ecosystems
Abstract: Argentina is the second largest world producer of soybeans (after the USA) and along with the increase in planted surface and production in the country, glyphosate consumption has grown in the same way. We investigated the effects of Roundup (glyphosate formulation) on the periphyton colonization. The experiment was carried out over 42 days in …
Glyphosate reduces spore viability and root colonization of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Abstract: Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the world, but its effects on non-target organisms, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), are unclear. No studies have been found that made reference to effects of glyphosate on AMF spore viability despite its importance as a source of propagules for the perpetuation and spread of …
