Natural habitats are rapidly declining due to urbanisation, with a concomitant decline in
biodiversity in highly urbanised areas. Yet thousands of different species have colonised …

Most pharmaceuticals are found at trace concentrations in aquatic systems, but their
continuous release and potential accumulation can lead to adverse health effects in …

Corbicula fluminea is highly sensitive to ammonia, and its response mechanism to ammonia
stress is unclear. In this study, C. fluminea was exposed to different levels of ammonia …

The increase in the global population, coupled with growing consumption of Rare Earth
Elements (REEs), has led to increasing transfer of these emerging contaminants into the …

Previous studies on the water quality of surface runoff often focused on the chemical oxygen
demand (COD), nitrogen, phosphorus, and total suspended solid (TSS), but little is known in …

Chromium (Cr) metal is highly toxic to plants and causes severe damage to their growth,
development, and reproduction. Plant exposure to chronic and acute Cr stress treatments …

Mollusca is the second largest animal phylum and represents one of the most evolutionarily
successful animal groups. Geloina erosa, a species of Corbiculidae, plays an important role …

Aluminium (Al) is a key element that plays a major role in inhibiting plant growth and
productivity under acidic soils. While lipids may be involved in plant tolerance/sensitivity to …

Based on previous studies and preliminary test results, 200 μM was used as the test
concentration of chromium (Cr), and changes in the gene expression profile of Arabidopsis …

Chromium phytotoxicity results in relevant alterations to plant physiology, gene expression,
and genomic DNA methylation at a transgenerational level. Herein, transcriptional …
