®
(RDT) is the most popular glyphosate-based herbicide (GHB) used in agriculture, and its impact extends to non-target organisms. The annual killifish
Austrolebias charrua
is an endangered species endemic to southern South America and inhabits temporary ponds. This study evaluates the effects of RDT concentrations (0.065 and 5 mg/L GAE) on
A. charrua
exposed for 96 h. Gene expression of

was evaluated on the liver and gills. Highlighting that even at low concentrations permitted by Brazilian legislation, the RDT can have adverse effects on
