Zooplankton communities and their relationship with water quality in eight reservoirs from the midwestern and southeastern regions of Brazil [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2020 Zooplankton are widely recognised as being regulated primarily by predators and food availability. In reservoirs, the quantity and quality of food resources are generally affected by the characteristics of the water, which in turn are controlled by the ...

Experiments on the influence of Chaoborus brasiliensis Theobald, 1901 (Diptera: Chaoboridae) on the diel vertical migration of microcrustaceans from Lake Monte Alegre, Brazil Experimentos sobre a influência de Chaoborus brasiliensis (Diptera: Chaoboridae) sobre a migração vertical de microcrustáceos do Lago Monte Alegre, Brasil [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2010 The aim of this work was to evaluate whether diel vertical migration of microcrustaceans from Lake Monte Alegre is related to invertebrate predators, namely larvae of Chaoborus brasiliensis. The hypothesis tested in the experiments was that the migratory

Is competition an interaction as relevant as predation for tropical planktonic cladocerans?
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2018 Aim To test the relevance of competition and predation for the two most abundant and frequent cladoceran populations, the medium-sized Ceriodaphnia richardi Sars, 1901 and the large-sized Daphnia gessneri Herbst, 1967, in a tropical shallow lake ...

Competition of Cladocerans for Natural Seston from a Tropical Shallow Lake
Water, 2023 The planktonic cladocerans Ceriodaphnia richardi, Daphnia gessneri, and Daphnia birgei inhabit the limnetic and littoral zones of Lake Monte Alegre, where the former species tends to be abundant. Laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate the
