Polystyrene microplastics (PS) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) are emerging pollutants widely coexisting in agroecosystems. However, the efficacies of PS as carriers for DBP and their interactive mechanisms on crop safety remain scarce. Here, this study investigated the combined exposure effects and the interacting mechanisms of PS laden with DBP on choy sum (Brassica parachinensis L.). Results showed that PS could efficiently adsorb and carry DBP, with a maximum carrying capacity of 9.91 %, facilitating the chemical translocation of DBP in choy sum and exacerbating phytotoxicity. Due to the changes in the properties of PS, DBP loading aggravated the phytotoxicity of choy sum, exhibiting synergistically toxic effects compared with individual exposure. The Trojan-horse-complexes formed by PS+DBP severely delayed the seed germination process and altered spatial growth patterns, causing disruptions in oxidative stress, osmoregulation, photosynthetic function, and elemental reservoirs of choy sum. Combined pollutants enhanced the uptake and translocation of both PS and DBP by 8.90-31.94 % and 136.81-139.37 %, respectively; while the accumulation processes for PS were more complex than for DBP. Visualization indicated that PS was intensively sequestered in roots with a strong fluorescent signal after loading DBP. This study comprehensively investigated the efficacies of PS carrying DBP on phytotoxicity, bioavailability, and their interactive mechanisms, providing significant evidence for food safety assessment of emerging contaminant interactions.
