Multiple impacts of microplastics can threaten marine habitat-forming species

Corinaldesi et al. investigated the biological responses to microplastic contamination of the red coral Corallium rubrum, a genus with near global distribution. Microplastics caused feeding impairment, tissue damage, altered gene expression, oxidative DNA damage and microbiome alteration. Such diver...

description Corinaldesi et al. investigated the biological responses to microplastic contamination of the red coral Corallium rubrum, a genus with near global distribution. Microplastics caused feeding impairment, tissue damage, altered gene expression, oxidative DNA damage and microbiome alteration. Such diverse deleterious effects may be generalizable to other habitat-forming suspension and filter feeders given the burgeoning levels of microplastic contamination across the world’s oceans.
