Comment on “Marine plastic debris emits a keystone infochemical for olfactory foraging seabirds” by Savoca et al.

In their recent paper, Savoca and collaborators (2016) showed that plastic debris in the ocean may acquire a dimethyl sulfide (DMS) signature from biofouling developing on their surface.
