## The role of predation and pesticides in shaping phytoplankton dynamics in a short microcosms experiment

Authors: Zaky SK, Gutierrez MF, Frau D. Source: ECOTOXICOLOGY 33: 1161-1170, 2024, DOI 10.1007/s10646-024-02805-4
Abstract: Aquatic organisms are subject to various forcing factors that affect their structure, some of which are natural, while others result from human activities, both having variable effects. This study aimed to determine the importance of a natural stressor (zooplankton) and an herbicide (atrazine) on phytoplankton density and morphological composition in a microcosm experiment. A natural phytoplankton assemblage was exposed to two zooplankton predators: a copepod (Argyrodiaptomus falcifer) and a cladoceran (Ceriodaphnia dubia), and to atrazine (27 µg/L), in three combinations of factors (zooplankton treatments (Z), atrazine treatment (A), the combination of both (ZA)) plus a Control...

## Cigarette butts enable toxigenic cyanobacteria growth by inhibiting their lethal fungal infections

Authors: Guttmann N, Wolinska J, Spahr S, Martínez-Ruiz E
Source: ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 286:117149, 2024, DOI 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.117149
Abstract: Cigarette butts (CBs), of which around 4.5 trillion are discarded annually, are one of the most common types of litter worldwide. CBs contain various chemicals, including metals, nicotine, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which can leach into water and pose a threat to aquatic organisms such as cyanobacteria and chytrid fungi. Chytrids, zoosporic fungi that parasitize cyanobacteria lethally, play a crucial role in regulating cyanobacteria blooms by delaying or suppressing bloom formation. Despite the prevalence of CBs in the environment, the impact of their leachates on cyanobacteria-chytrid interactions is not well understood. We assessed the effects of CB leachate on the interaction between the toxigenic cyanobacterium Planktothrix agardhii and its chytrid parasite Rhizophydium megarrhizum...

## Assessment of extracellular polymeric substances production and antioxidant defences in periphytic communities exposed to effluent contaminants

Authors: Silva C, Figueira E, Matos D et al.
Source: ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE-PROCESSES & IMPACTS Early Access, DOI 10.1039/d4em00446a
Abstract: Periphyton is frequently used in the evaluation of the ecological status of aquatic ecosystems using diatoms as a proxy. However, periphyton has a particularity, the production of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), which might play a protective role against exposure to harmful environmental contaminants. Effluents originating in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) constitute some of the most complex mixtures of contaminants, to which aquatic ecosystems are frequently exposed, often containing tens to hundreds of different chemicals. In such challenging scenarios, a putative protective role of EPS may obscure the bioindicator value of diatoms. To address this problem, we sampled periphyton upstream and downstream of the effluent outfall from three different WWTPs, quantifying EPS production and simultaneously evaluating general stress responses in the community...
