Niche separation of two cryptic species through temperature‐dependent hatching
EcosphereUnderstanding coexistence between species is a central goal in community ecology. In particular, species of cryptic species complexes that often occur in the same habitats and are morphologically almost identical are interesting subjects for the study of

The diversity of Indian Brachionidae (Rotifera: Eurotatoria: Monogononta) and their distribution [PDF]
Opuscula Zoologica Instituti Zoosystematici et Oecologici Universitatis Budapestinensis, 2014 We evaluate diversity status of the Brachionidae of India and present an annotated checklist of 46 species excluding dubious and unconfirmed reports. These merit biodiversity value as ~27% of the global diversity of the taxon and ~81% of its Oriental ...

Trans-Generational Morphological Trait Plasticity in Parthenogenetic Offspring of Two <i>Brachionus dorcas</i> Morphotypes Induced by <i>Asplanchna</i> Kairomones. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe compared life‐table parameters and trans‐generation (F0–F12) morphological developmental plasticity induced by Asplanchna kairomones between two Brachionus dorcas morphotypes (long‐posterior spines, LS; short‐posterior spines, SS). The results revealed that the SS offspring employed a synergistic defense combining increased body size and spine ...

THE USE OF LIVE FOOD IN REARING OF THE LARVAE OF GRASS CARP CTENOPHARYGODON IDELLA
المجلة العراقية للاستزراع المائي, 2022 The larvae of grass carp Ctenophargodon idella were fed on three types of live food Brachionus calyciflorus, Artemia sp. and Daphnia magna. The study showed that live food is very important to achieve high growth and survival of fish larvae.

Ecotoxicological studies with the freshwater rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1993 The use of the freshwater rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus as a test organism for ecotoxicological studies was examined. Changes in the feeding-, swimming behavior- and demographic characteristics of the rotifers exposed to increasing concentrations of copper (Cu) were studied and the relationships between the different test parameters and their ...

Asymmetric Micro-Evolutionary Responses in a Warming World: Heat-Driven Adaptation Enhances Metal Tolerance in a Planktonic Rotifer, but Not Vice Versa. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolRapid genetic adaptation is a potentially important mechanism by which natural populations can increase their tolerance to human‐induced environmental stressors. In our study, we demonstrated that zooplankton populations adapted to heat stress exhibited increased tolerance to copper toxicity.
