Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The increased selection pressure of the herbicide glyphosate has played a role in the evolution of glyphosate-resistance in weedy species, an issue that is becoming a threat to global agriculture. The molecular components involved in the cellular toxicity response to this herbicide at the expression level are still unidentified. RESULTS: In this study, we identify the protein kinase GCN2 as a cellular...
