The action of safener benoxacor on the detoxification of terbuthylazine (TBA) in Zea mays and Festuca arundinacea was ascertained by the investigation of the effects of benoxacor on the activity of glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) in the shoots of the two plant species. TBA treatment generally
The expression of glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity in Festuca arundinacea was investigated in response to the following herbicide safeners: benoxacor, cloquintocet-mexyl, fenchlorazol-ethyl, fenclorim, fluxofenim and oxabetrinil. All the above compounds enhanced the GST activity tested
Phytoextraction efficiency of cadmium (Cd) contaminated soil mainly depended upon the mechanism of plants in absorption, translocation, distribution, and detoxification of Cd. A pot experiment was designed to investigate Cd distribution and accumulation among the different leaves of tall fescue
To evidence a possible mechanism of defense toward oxidative stress induced by herbicides in plants, an investigation was carried on the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) in Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) and in Festuca (Festuca arundinacea) in response to atrazine
The capacity of two grasses, tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) and orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata), to remove terbuthylazine (TBA) from polluted solutions has been assessed in hydroponic cultures. Different TBA concentrations (0.06, 0.31, 0.62, and 1.24 mg/L) were chosen to test the capacity of
To assess the efficacy of ammoniation in the detoxification of endophyte-infected tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.), 40 male Harlan Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to the following four treatments for 28 d: endophyte-free (E-), endophyte-infected (E+), ammoniated (2% dry matter
