This editorial introduces a research collection examining the effects of microplastics on the ecosystem functioning of eukaryotic marine microbes, highlighting key findings on how plastic particles disrupt microbial community structure and biogeochemical processes. The collection synthesizes emerging evidence on microplastic impacts on marine protists, microalgae, and other eukaryotic microorganisms that underpin ocean ecosystem functions.
