Microplastic ingestion perturbs the microbiome of Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti

2023-02-07

Abstract excerpt

Microplastics (MPs) are common environmental pollutants; however, little is known about their effects after ingestion by insects. Here we exposed Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquito larvae to 1 µm polystyrene MPs and examined the impacts MP ingestion on adult emergence rates, gut damage, and fungal and bacterial microbiota. Results show that ingested MPs accumulate in the larval guts, resulting in gut dama...
