DEET is one of the most frequently detected insect repellents in the environment reaching concentrations of several μg L⁻¹ in surface water. There is scarce information available regarding its mode of action in non-target organisms. Here, we have used an integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic approach to elucidate the possible adverse effects of...
The high consumption and subsequent input of antibacterial compounds in marine ecosystems has become a worldwide problem. Their continuous presence in these ecosystems allows a direct interaction with aquatic organisms and can cause negative effects over time. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effects of exposure to three antib...
Currently, thanks to the development of sensitive analytical techniques, the presence of different emerging pollutants in aquatic ecosystems has been evidenced; however, most of them have not been submitted to any regulation so far. Among emerging contaminants, antimicrobials have received particular attention in recent decades, mainly due to the c...
Sulisobenzone (BP-4) is one of the benzophenone type UV filters most frequently detected in aquatic ecosystems. As a suspected endocrine disrupting compound, scarce information is available yet about other molecular effects and its mechanism of action. Here, we used an integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic approach to improve the current unders...
The Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica maintains a biodiverse ecosystem and it is a world‐wide important carbon sink. It grows for millennia, accumulating organic‐rich soils (mats) beneath the meadows. This marine habitat is protected by the European Union; however, it is declining rapidly due to coastal development. Understanding its respon...
Background: Some populations of stickleback have a reduced number and/or relative size of spines. Hypothesis: Macroinvertebrate predators such as dragonfly larvae cause selective pressure against spines by capturing more stickleback with pelvic spines than stickleback that are spineless. Organisms: Ninespine stickleback (Pungitius pungitius) and dr...
