Co-encapsulation of Daphnia magna and microalgae in silica matrices, a stepping stone toward a portable microcosm [PDF]
We report on the first silica encapsulation of a metazoan (Daphnia magna), with a high initial viability (96% of the population remained active 48 h after encapsulation).

Horizontal transfer of parasitic sex ratio distorters between crustacean hosts [PDF]
Parasitic sex ratio distorters were artificially transferred within and between crustacean host species in order to study the effects of parasitism on host fitness and sex determination and to investigate parasite–host specificity. Implantation of Nosema

Comment: Food web interactions and biomanipulation in Australian reservoirs [PDF]
The authors have been studying the control of phytoplankton biomass in several Australian reservoirs. To manipulate fish communities in order to reduce phytoplankton biomass, one needs a thorough understanding of processes in the plankton-associated food
