The uptake and accumulation of nanoplastics by plants have raised particular concerns. However, molecular mechanisms underlying nanoplastic phytotoxicity are still vague and insufficient. Thus, its potential environmental risks and biosafety are receiving increased attention. In this study, cucum...
Desalination brine discharge poses emerging threats to benthic marine organisms through combined salinity stress and metal contamination. This study investigated the individual and combined effects of salinity (35 ppt) and metal exposure (Cu, Fe, and Cd) on the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus...
