Toxic mechanism Nicotine binds stereoselectively to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAchRs), which are pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs), localised in the peripheral and central nervous system, autonomic ganglia, sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, and skeletal neuromuscular junctions 10 , 23
WP smoking status Participants answered a self-administered questionnaire about their WP smoking status, the frequency of smoking, and duration of smoking
Stronger documentation and more severe impacts generally correlate with higher potential compensation
If a mandate were to be implemented, it is assumed that growers, manufacturers, and regulators would desire that low nicotine plant phenotypes be achieved with minimal consequential changes in agronomic performance, quality characteristics, or metabolic profiles
