Metatranscriptomic Insights into the Response of Eudrilus eugeniae Earthworm to Quinalphos Organophosphate Insecticide Exposure (5%)
Metatranscriptomic analysis was performed on gut microbiota from Eudrilus eugeniae earthworms exposed to the organophosphate insecticide quinalphos. RNA was extracted from gut samples of control and treated groups to investigate microbial gene expression changes associated with pesticide exposure. The study aims to assess functional alterations in gut microbial communities under xenobiotic stress.
