Colomerus vitis (Pagenstecher, 1857) A species of the family Eriophyidae. These mites are microscopic in size. The one in this photograph measures only 43 µm (1/2 millimetre) and is therefore completely invisible without optical equipment such as a microscope. The Colomier mites live on the underside of the vine leaves where their bites cause a reaction of the plant in the form of blisters due to the formation of numerous filaments. The mites live in the middle of these filaments and are almost invisible. This disease is called grapevine erinosis.

Microinjection of Zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos to analyse gene function. Embryo being micro-injected into the yolk with RNA (ribonucleic acid) mixed with a red dye. One of the advantages of studying zebrafish is the ease with which specific gene products can be added to or eliminated from the embryo by microinjection. Morpholinos, which are synthetic oligonucleotides with antisense complementarity to target RNAs, can be added to the embryo to reduce the expression of a particular gene product. USA

Marine fish larvae eat microplastics. Small pieces of plastic, termed “micro plastic” in the oceans derive mainly from degradation of big plastics such as beach littering, but also from sources of direct emission from example beauty scrubbers and synthetic sand-blasting. These micro plastics are ingested by marine animals –mistaking them for plankton – or via prey. When ingested, the particles affect the animals due to their physical properties and their chemical properties (the plastic polymer itself and additives) and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) gathered on their surface. The latter because micro plastics have a large hydrophobic surface, which accumulate POPs to a great extent, on micro plastics than in the surrounding water.
