Stoichiometric regulation in micro- and mesozooplankton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aquatic ecosystems experience large natural variation in elemental composition of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), which is further enhanced by human activities. Primary producers typically reflect the nutrient ratios of their resource, whose

Short-term preservation of Brachionus calyciflorus: effects of storage on protein, lipid and carbohydrate contents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The short-term preservation of Brachionus calyciflorus for 45 days at three different temperatures (4, -4 and -20°C) led to decrease in protein, lipid and carbohydrate contents in all the three cases.

Population growth study of the rotifer Brachionus sp. fed with triazine-exposed microalgae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
[Abstract]Few data exist on potential toxic effects that pollutants may have on zooplankton fed microalgae exposed to pesticides. For that reason, microalgal cultures were exposed to different concentrations of the triazine herbicide terbutryn, and used ...

Optimizing Culture Protocols for Cyclops sp.: Innovations in Density, Feed Composition and Dietary Strategies for Freshwater Aquaculture

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Developing optimized feeding strategies for copepods is essential in contemporary aquaculture, as they serve as a highly nutritious live feed for numerous aquatic organisms. Three experiments were conducted to enhance the development and reproductive success of the copepod, Cyclops sp., to support sustainable aquaculture practices.

Distribution of Brachionus species (Phylum Rotifera) in Cochin backwaters, Kerala, India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Distribution of thirteen species of Brachionus in nine stations from Cochin backwaters was studied during August 2000-July 2002. Of the 13 species, B. plicatilis and B. rotundiformis were observed in all the stations. B. rotundiformis was dominant with

Full life-cycle toxicity assessment on triclosan using rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2016
Triclosan (TCS) is an antimicrobial and is an aquatic contaminant. Little is known on aquatic toxicity of TCS. Rotifers are common members of freshwater zooplankton. In this study, Brachionus calyciflorus was chosen as a test organism to assess the acute and complete life cycle toxicity of TCS in this study.

Eco‐phenotypic feedback loops differ in multistressor environments

open access: yesEcology, Volume 106, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Natural communities are exposed to multiple environmental stressors, which simultaneously impact the population and trait dynamics of the species embedded within these communities. Given that certain traits, such as body size, are known to rapidly respond to environmental change, and given that they can strongly influence the density of ...

Effect of different densities of live and dead Chlorella vulgaris on the population growth of rotifers Brachionus calyciflorus and Brachionus patulus (Rotifera)

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2001
In order to maintain rotifer populations during periods of low algal production, it is necessary to offer alternate diets, some of which include forms of preserved algae.

Planktonic rotifers of a saline-lowland river : The Salado River (Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Seasonal samples of zooplankton were taken during 1997-1999 at fifteen stations in the Salado River basin, and analysed in order to study the rotifer fauna. Spatio-temporal changes in the rotifer plankton composition were examined in the main channel and

Zooplankton in Aquaculture: A Perspective on Nutrition and Cost‐Effectiveness

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Successful aquaculture relies on effective feeding strategies for target species, from the larval stage through to sexually mature adults, in both marine and freshwater environments. Aquatic organisms, particularly larvae, instinctively prefer live feeds like algae and zooplankton; larvae are entirely dependent on live feeds due to their undeveloped ...
