Molecular Ecology, 2020 AbstractThe microcrustaceanDaphniais arguably one of the most studied zooplankton species, having a well understood ecology, life history, and a relatively well studied evolutionary history. Despite this wealth of knowledge, species boundaries within closely related species in this genus often remain elusive and the major evolutionary forces driving ...

Mycosporine-Like Amino Acids (MAAs) in Zooplankton
Marine Drugs, 2020 Organisms have different adaptations to avoid damage from ultraviolet radiation and one such adaptation is the accumulation of mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs).

EXCLI Journal : Experimental and Clinical Sciences, 2022 The use of glyphosate-based Roundup and triazine herbicide Atrazine has increased markedly in last decades. Thus, it is important to evaluate toxic effects of these herbicides to non-targeted organisms such as zooplankton to understand their safety ...

Responses of a bacterial pathogen to phosphorus limitation of its aquatic invertebrate host [PDF]
, 2008 Host nutrition is thought to affect the establishment, persistence, and severity of pathogenic infections. Nutrient-deficient foods possibly benefit pathogens by constraining host immune function or benefit hosts by limiting parasite growth and ...
