简介
The objective of this study was to assess the combined impact of environmental microplastic pollution and biological invasion which represent critical global eco-environmental challenges. The invasion of Solidago canadensis L. and soil microplastic contamination in the agroecosystem pose severe hazards to soil and plant ecology and human health. Oryza sativa L. (rice) was examined after individual and combined exposure to Solidago canadensis L. invasion (SI) and soil polyethylene microplastic contamination (MPc). Comparing the individual and combination treatments to the control, leaf biomass decreased, with varying changes in carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus. Antioxidant enzyme activity and reactive oxygen species levels were significantly reduced following SI exposure and increased following the combined treatment (SI × MP). In contrast, ascorbate peroxidase and catalase activities were reduced …
