Biochemical Chemical Compounds and Stress Markers in Lettuce upon Exposure to Pathogenic Botrytis cinerea and Fungicides Inhibiting Oxidative Phosphorylation

Chemical protection of plants is necessary to maximize crop yields.  Consequently, using pesticides can disrupt the concentrations of biochemical compounds in plants and reduce the availability of essential plant nutrients available to the human diet. Researchers at the Institute of Plant Protection – National Research Institute in Poland have recently published a paper showing how…
