The effect of microplastics on Daphnia fitness – systematic review and meta-analysis.
Summary
This systematic review and meta-analysis examines how micro and nanoplastic particles affect the health and reproduction of Daphnia, a tiny freshwater organism commonly used as an indicator of water quality. The findings matter because Daphnia sit at the base of many aquatic food chains, so harm to these organisms from plastic pollution can ripple upward through ecosystems and ultimately affect the fish and water we depend on.
Systematic review on studies on micro/nanoplastic effect on <em>Daphnia</em> published up to 27 April 2022, including a meta-analysis on the effect of micro/nanoplastics on <em>Daphnia</em> reproduction.
