La feuille des plantes supérieures : fonction et sensibilité (video)
Au sein des feuilles, les cellules renfermant des chloroplastes captent l'énergie lumineuse. Cette énergie permet la synthèse de molécules complexes (saccharose, acides aminés, etc.) à partir de molécules très simples (gaz carbonique, nitrate, sulfate). Il s'ensuit un dégagement d'oxygène. Les herbicides redoutables inhibent sélectivement une enzyme clé catalysant une étape incontournable de ces synthèses. Certains de ces herbicides sont particulièrement efficaces et présente
