Biological stoichiometry of Daphnia growth: An ecophysiological test of the growth rate hypothesis (2004, methodology): “…2003), cyanobacteria (Lepp and Schmidt 1998), yeast (Aiking and Tempest 1976), algae (Rhee 1978), and other species of Daphnia (DeMott et al. 1998; Vrede et al. 1998; Gorokhova et al. 2002) and with cross-species comparisons of P content and growth rates of crustacean zooplankton (Main et al.…”
RNA responses to N‐ and P‐limitation; reciprocal regulation of stoichiometry and growth rate in Brachionus (2007, background): “For many P-rich and fast-growing invertebrates, RNA constitutes a major fraction of body P, suggesting a close association between the specific Pcontent and growth rate of an organism (Hessen 1990; Andersen & Hessen 1991; Sterner & Hessen 1994; Elser et al. 1996).”
FUNDAMENTAL CONNECTIONS AMONG ORGANISM C:N:P STOICHIOMETRY, MACROMOLECULAR COMPOSITION, AND GROWTH (2004, background): “:P ratios, on average 50:1 (by atoms) for bacterioplankton (Fagerbakke et al. 1996) and 35:1 for exponentially growing non-nutrient-limited cultured marine bacteria (K. Vrede et al. 2002).”
Effects of preservation and storage of microcrustaceans in RNAlater on RNA and DNA degradation (2005, background): “…of plankton biologists are using analysis of bulk RNA and DNA for estimating growth and nutritional conditions of zooplankton in field studies and laboratory experiments (e.g., Wagner et al. 1998; Campbell et al. 2001; Vrede et al. 2002; Durbin et al. 2003; Gorokhova 2003; Hansen et al. 2003).”
Resource quality effects on life histories of Daphnia (2003, unknown): “The C : P threshold of 350 for Daphnia growth is in the same range that Brett et al. (2000) found in the field but higher than what Vrede et al. (2002) showed in their laboratory study.”
The Functional Significance of Ribosomal (r)DNA Variation: Impacts on the Evolutionary Ecology of Organisms (2005, background): “A variety of recent studies indicates that this is the case, at least in microorganisms (Makino et al. 2003) and invertebrates including zooplankton (Acharya et al. 2004; Carrillo et al. 2001; Elser et al. 1996; Main et al. 1997; Vrede et al. 1998, 2002”
