Trophic transfer and egestion dynamics of microplastics in the Brachionus-Asplanchna rotifer systemNARA Subscribed
Microplastics have become a pervasive contaminant in freshwater ecosystems worldwide, raising concerns about their impact on aquatic life, especially zooplankton, which play a pivotal role in freshwater food webs. Despite their ecological importance, knowledge on how microplastics move through predator–prey interactions in microscopic communities remains limited. We investigated this question using a classic freshwater system:...
The escalating global movement of alien species, facilitated by increased trade and travel, poses a pressing need to comprehend their invasive potential and the consequent ecological and economic ramifications. Despite a growing body of evidence on rapid evolutionary shifts in invasive species, comprehensive insights into the genetic variability underlying these adaptations are constrained by limited genomic resources. Underst...
