Trans-Generational Morphological Trait Plasticity in Parthenogenetic Offspring of Two <i>Brachionus dorcas</i> Morphotypes Induced by <i>Asplanchna</i> Kairomones. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe compared life‐table parameters and trans‐generation (F0–F12) morphological developmental plasticity induced by Asplanchna kairomones between two Brachionus dorcas morphotypes (long‐posterior spines, LS; short‐posterior spines, SS). The results revealed that the SS offspring employed a synergistic defense combining increased body size and spine ...

Effect of Brachionus rubens on the growth characteristics of various species of microalgae
Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2016 Background: Cultivation of algae for conversion to biofuels has gained global interest. Outdoor raceway cultivation is preferred because of its lower capital and operating costs.

The significance of phosphorus in algae growth and the subsequent ecological response of consumers
Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2022 Human activities have substantially disrupted phosphorus (P) cycles in the ecosystem, affecting producers and consumers along the food chain. To assess the ecological effects of imbalanced P on producers as well as consumer reactions to changes in food ...

Rotifers: Exquisite Metazoans [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2002 Rotifers comprise a modestly sized phylum (≈1,850 species) of tiny (ca. 50-2,000 μm), bilaterally symmetrical, eutelic metazoans, traditionally grouped within the pseudocoelomates or Aschelminthes. These saccate to cylindrically shaped protostomes possess three prominent regions (corona, trunk, foot).

Animals, 2022 The effect of feeding with taurine-enriched rotifers on larval growth and survival in the small yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis was investigated. Rotifers, control (without taurine enrichment) or enriched with a commercial taurine supplement at two

Bdelloid rotifers revisited [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 Sexual reproduction is one of the most striking features of the biological world. The great majority of the animals and plants with which we are most familiar reproduce at least part of the time by means of sexual reproduction with meiosis, recombination, and fertilization.

Limnological Review, 2016 Rotifer abundance and species composition in lakes of the Suwalki Landscape Park were studied in the years 1983–1985, 2009, 2012 and 2015. Rotifer trophic state indices (TSIROT) were used to assess changes in the trophic state of the studied lakes.
