The ability of a genotype to respond to changes in the environment through modifications in the phenotype is adaptive when the plastic genotypes attain a higher fitness than non-plastic genotypes. In this study we examine ...

Drugs are considered within the so-called emerging pollutants, so it is important to investigate the toxic effects they can produce in the environment. The aim of this study was to determine the toxic effect of aqueous ...

Twelve essential oils from Mediterranean aromatic plants were tested for their phytotoxic activity, at different doses, against the germination and the initial radicle growth of seeds of Raphanus sativus, Lactuca sativa ...
