Toward Integrative Bacterial Monitoring of Metolachlor Toxicity in Groundwater

Toward Integrative Bacterial Monitoring of Metolachlor Toxicity in Groundwater

Common herbicides such as metolachlor (MET), and their transformation products, are frequently detected in groundwater worldwide. Little is known about the response of groundwater bacterial communities to herbicide exposure, and its potential use for ecotoxicological assessment. The response of bact...
