M. Boersma et J. Vijverberg, POSSIBLE TOXIC EFFECTS ON DAPHNIA RESULTING FROM THE GREEN-ALGA SCENEDESMUS-OBLIQUUS, Hydrobiologia, 294(2), 1994, pp. 99-103
We cultured individuals of two Daphnia species and their hybrid on two
different algae, Scenedesmus obliquus and Chlamydomonas globosa, in d
ifferent concentrations. Our results suggest that culture conditions o
f S. obliquus can be such that the algal cells become toxic to Daphnia
.
