ClearDifferent effects of polyethylene microplastic and benzophenone-3 additive on interspecific competition of Daphnia magna and Daphnia pulex
Researchers studied interspecific competition between two Daphnia species under polyethylene microplastic and benzophenone-3 (a UV filter additive) exposure, finding that smaller D. pulex had a competitive advantage under microplastic alone due to lower uptake, while larger D. magna became dominant when the additive was present due to its greater tolerance.
The effect of microplastics on the interspecific competition of Daphnia
Researchers investigated how microplastic presence affects interspecific competition between Daphnia species, finding that microplastics can alter competitive outcomes and shift population dynamics between coexisting zooplankton species.
