Researchers from the University of Turku in Finland have developed a new bioinformatics tool to predict if a microbe, e.g. a human gut bacterium, is sensitive to the world’s most used weedkiller, glyphosate. The tool has revealed that 54% of the human core gut bacterial species are potentially sensitive to the chemical herbicide. “Glyphosate targets … Continue reading New Bioinformatics Tool Reveals 54% of Human Gut Microbiome Potentially Sensitive to Glyphosate
