Plant growth-promoting bacteria modulate gene expression and induce antioxidant tolerance to alleviate synergistic toxicity from combined microplastic and Cd pollution in sorghum

Microplastics (MPs) can act as carriers for environmental pollutants; therefore, MPs combined with heavy metal pollution are attracting increasing attention from researchers. In this study, the potential of the plant growth-promoting bacterium Bacillus sp. SL-413 to mitigate the stress caused by exp...
