Nanoplastics Modulate the Outcome of Zooplankton- Microparasite Interactions
AI summary Read the abstract
This is a supplementary data and code archive associated with a study examining how nanoplastics affect interactions between zooplankton and their microparasites. The underlying research investigates whether nanoplastic exposure changes the outcome of host-parasite relationships in aquatic ecosystems.
The updated version of the scripts are in is Github repo: https://github.com/StevetheGreek97/DaMN_Project.git

Nanoplastics modulate the outcome of a zooplankton–microparasite interaction
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers found that nanoplastics can alter the outcome of zooplankton-microparasite interactions, demonstrating that plastic pollution at the nanoscale may disrupt host-parasite dynamics in freshwater ecosystems with cascading ecological effects.
Effects of microplastics and nanoplastics on host–parasite interactions in aquatic environments
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how microplastics and nanoplastics affect the interactions between parasites and their hosts in aquatic environments. Evidence indicates that plastic particles can influence infection rates, parasite transmission, and host immune responses, though the effects vary widely depending on the species and type of plastic involved.
Data for: Polystyrene nanoplastics differentially influence the outcome of infection by two microparasites of the host Daphnia magna
AI summary Read the abstract
This is a dataset supporting research on how polystyrene nanoplastics affect infection outcomes by two microparasites in the water flea Daphnia magna. It is a data repository entry linked to a study published in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B.
Microplastic effects on zooplankton: meta-analysis dataset and code (48 studies; 1,468 effect sizes)
AI summary Read the abstract
This meta-analysis dataset accompanies research pooling data from 48 studies to examine how microplastics affect zooplankton across different environmental conditions. The analysis covers nearly 1,500 effect measurements and found that microplastics pose elevated risks to these tiny aquatic organisms, particularly under warming conditions. This is concerning because zooplankton form the foundation of aquatic food webs that ultimately supply seafood to human diets.
