Bacillus megaterium strains derived from water and soil exhibit differential responses to the herbicide mesotrione.

The intense use of herbicides for weed control in agriculture causes selection pressure on soil microbiota and water ecosystems, possibly resulting in changes to microbial processes, such as biogeochemical cycles.
