Microplastics in the menu of Mediterranean zooplankton: Insights from the feeding response of the calanoid copepod Centropages typicus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

The planktonic food web in the Gulf of Naples based on the analysis of carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

Effects of Glyphosate on the Planktonic Microbiota: An Experimental Approach

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, including in Brazil, and its dispersion through habitats and surface waters can impact entire aquatic ecosystems. However, experimental studies evaluating the effects of pesticides on whole planktonic communities, considering attributes such as richness, density and composition—

Linking rhizosphere bacterial succession to metabolite dynamics unravels the underlying survival strategies of desert ephemeral plants

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Desert ephemerals complete rapid life cycles to survive aridity, yet the ontogenetic coordination of below‐ground rhizosphere interactions with above‐ground resource allocation remains unclear.

Nutrient enrichment destabilizes aquatic food webs through synchronization within and across trophic levels

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nutrient enrichment destabilizes ecosystems globally, but the mechanistic pathways underlying this effect in multi‐trophic communities remain unclear. To address this knowledge gap, we applied biodiversity–stability theory to multi‐trophic communities by partitioning ...
