The first-generation Daphnia magna linkage map [PDF]

, 2010
Background Daphnia magna is a well-established model species in ecotoxicology, ecology and evolution. Several new genomics tools are presently under development for this species; among them, a linkage map is a first requirement for estimating the genetic

Chaoborus and gasterosteus anti-predator responses in Daphnia pulex are mediated by independent cholinergic and gabaergic neuronal signals. [PDF]

, 2012
Many prey species evolved inducible defense strategies that protect effectively against predation threats. Especially the crustacean Daphnia emerged as a model system for studying the ecology and evolution of inducible defenses. Daphnia pulex e.g.

An SNP-based second-generation genetic map of Daphnia magna and its application to QTL analysis of phenotypic traits [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Although Daphnia is increasingly recognized as a model for ecological genomics and biomedical research, there is, as of yet, no high-resolution genetic map for the genus.

wFleaBase: the Daphnia genome database [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2005
Abstract Background wFleaBase is a database with the necessary infrastructure to curate, archive and share genetic, molecular and functional genomic data and protocols for an emerging model organism, the microcrustacean Daphnia.

Reproductive strategies of two similar Daphnia species [PDF]

, 1985
Cladocerans, like many other invertebrates, continue to grow after beginning to reproduce, and their reproductive capability increases with size. What are the demographic consequences of this strategy of indeterminate growth?

Introducing of the methods of pollutants detecting and species used as experiment organisms in testing laboratories (ro) [PDF]

Medicamentul Veterinar, 2012
Zebrafish are vertebrate animals often used in research for wastewaters, environment chemicals, cancer and diabetes drugs due to their speed and ease for handling and obtaining test results.

Sensory Ecology of Predator-Induced Phenotypic Plasticity

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Ecological communities are organized in trophic levels that share manifold interactions forming complex food webs. Infochemicals can further modify these interactions, e.g., by inducing defenses in prey. The micro-crustacean Daphnia is able to respond to

Can Daphnia lumholtzi invade European lakes?

, 2013
The cladoceran Daphnia lumholtzi is a subtropical and tropical zooplankter, and an invasive species in North America. Thus far, D. lumholtzi has not been detected in Europe.

Inference of Historical Population-Size Changes with Allele-Frequency Data

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
With up to millions of nearly neutral polymorphisms now being routinely sampled in population-genomic surveys, it is possible to estimate the site-frequency spectrum of such sites with high precision.

Successfully resisting a pathogen is rarely costly in Daphnia magna [PDF]

, 2010
Background A central hypothesis in the evolutionary ecology of parasitism is that trade-offs exist between resistance to parasites and other fitness components such as fecundity, growth, survival, and predator avoidance, or resistance to other parasites.
