Plastic degradation in plant science refers to the mechanisms by which plants and plant-derived enzymes can break down plastic polymers. This is significant to plant biology because it explores biotechnological applications for environmental remediation and sustainability solutions. Additionally, understanding these processes helps researchers assess how plastic materials and their degradation byproducts affect plant physiology, soil health, and ecosystem functioning.
