Multiomics reveals the impact of microplastics and di-

Summary: Did you know that tiny pieces of plastic in our soil can mess with how plants grow? Scientists are using advanced tools to study how common plastics—like the ones found in bags, cups, and pipes—change plant hormones. These "microplastics" and their chemical additives act like hormone disruptors for crops, which could eventually affect our food supply. Understanding this hidden danger helps us protect our farms, our environment, and the food we eat!
