TLDR
Compared with non-contact shading effect, interactions between microplastic and microalage such as adsorption and aggregation were more reasonable explanations for toxic effects of microplastics on marine microalgae.About:

Occurrence, Bioaccumulation, and Risk Assessment of Microplastics in the Aquatic Environment: A Review
TL;DR: In this paper , the current status of MP pollution and its bioaccumulation in marine, freshwater, and other water environments is reviewed, and relevant recommendations for future research on the bioaccUMulation of MPs in conjunction with previous studies to provide basic support for risk assessment and environmental management.

Microplastics - An emerging contaminants for algae. Critical review and perspectives.
Magdalena Podbielska,Ewa Szpyrka +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the effects and impacts of microplastics and coexisting pollutants on algal populations, on the basis of currently available literature, were summarized and analyzed. But the authors did not consider the effect of micro-plastic toxicity on algae.

Studies of marine planktonic diatoms: i. cyclotella nana hustedt, and detonula confervacea (cleve) gran.
TL;DR: Bacteria-free clones of the small centric diatom Cyclotella nana Hustedt were isolated, three from estuarine localities, one from Continental Shelf waters, and one from the Sargasso Sea as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation and fragmentation of plastic debris in global environments.
TL;DR: Global plastics production and the accumulation of plastic waste are documented, showing that trends in mega- and macro-plastic accumulation rates are no longer uniformly increasing and that the average size of plastic particles in the environment seems to be decreasing.

The pollution of the marine environment by plastic debris: a review.
TL;DR: The deleterious effects of plastic debris on the marine environment were reviewed by bringing together most of the literature published so far on the topic, and a variety of approaches are urgently required to mitigate the problem.

TL;DR: It is shown that microplastic contaminates the shorelines at 18 sites worldwide representing six continents from the poles to the equator, with more material in densely populated areas, but no clear relationship between the abundance of miocroplastics and the mean size-distribution of natural particulates.
