Comparative effects of technical-grade and a commercial formulation of glyphosate on the pigment content of periphytic algae.
We investigated the potentially different effects of one of the most commonly used glyphosate formulations in Argentina, Glifosato Atanor(®), and the technical-grade glyphosate on the pigment content, as biomass indicators of the algal fraction in a freshwater periphytic community. A laboratory bioa...
