Trophic upgrading of autotrophic picoplankton by the heterotrophic nanoflagellate Paraphysomonas sp. (2006, methodology): “Materials and methods Cultures and food suspensions of autotrophic organisms— Synechococcus sp. strain BO8809, S. elongatus SAG 89.79, and M. aeruginosa PCC7806 were grown in Cyano medium (Von Elert and Wolffrom 2001) at 20uC with illumination at 60 mmol m22 s21.”

A test of the role of polyunsaturated fatty acids in phytoplankton food quality for Daphnia using liposome supplementation (2003, background): “The second hypothesis emphasizes the role of specific biochemicals such as amino acids, sterols, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (Brett and Müller-Navarra 1997; Klein Breteler et al. 1999).”
Effects of cyanobacterial toxicity and morphology on the population growth of freshwater zooplankton: Meta‐analyses of laboratory experiments (2006, background): “For example, the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena has been found to be deficient in sterols (von Elert et al. 2003), whereas a strain of single-celled Synechococcus lacked essential fatty acids (von Elert and Wolffrom 2001).”
Differential effects of phosphorus and fatty acids on Daphnia magna growth and reproduction (2005, methodology): “Moreover, 0.8 mg EPA L21 (D. galeata, Müller-Navarra 1995b) and 0.04 mg EPA L21 (D. magna, this study) are considerably lower than the enrichments used in recent studies; ;8 (Becker and Boersma 2003), 105 (von Elert and Wolffrom 2001), and 146 (von Elert 2002) mg EPA L21.”
Daphnia growth on microcystin‐producing and microcystin‐free Microcystis aeruginosa in different mixtures with the green alga Scenedesmus obliquus (2003, background): “To overcome nutritional insufficiency in an essential compound, such as unsaturated fatty acids (cf. DeMott and Müller-Navarra 1997; Ferrao et al. 2000; Von Elert and Wolffrom 2001), both the wild-type and mutant strain of M. aeruginosa PCC7806 were added in different mixtures with a good food (Sce”
Changes in microcystin production in cyanobacteria exposed to zooplankton at different population densities and infochemical concentrations (2007, background): “…forms, such as filamentous or colonial (DeMott et al. 2001), and their lack of essential fatty acids or lipids (DeMott and MüllerNavarra 1997); these characteristics mean that cyanobacteria could have severe effects on zooplankton growth and reproduction (von Elert and Wolffrom 2001).”
Role of essential lipids in copepod nutrition: no evidence for trophic upgrading of food quality by a marine ciliate (2004, methodology): “Using cyanobacterial food deficient in PUFAs as well as sterols (Volkman 2003), VonElert & Wolffrom (2001) showed that supplementation with PUFAs did not enhance the rate of growth of D. galeata, whereas recent experiments showed that sterol supplementation did enhance growth of the cladoceran…”
Good food versus bad food: the role of sterols and polyunsaturated fatty acids in determining growth and reproduction of Daphnia magna (2009, background): “In previous studies, the supplementation of S. elongatus with single PUFAs (Martin-Creuzburg et al. 2008 )o r with deliberate mixtures of PUFAs ( Von Elert and Wolffrom 2001; Von Elert et al. 2003) failed to improve the growth of Daphnia sp., which has been interpreted to indicate that the low qual”
Zooplankton community structure, micro-zooplankton grazing impact, and seston energy content in the St. Johns river system, Florida as influenced by the toxic cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsisraciborskii (2005, background): “Cyanobacteria can affect zooplankton grazers by their colonial and filamentous morphology (Fulton & Paerl, 1987), toxicity (Fulton & Paerl, 1988), or lack of nutritional value ( Von Elert & Wolffrom, 2001 ).”
Resource quality effects on life histories of Daphnia (2003, unknown): “Whereas the researchers advocating mineral limitation mainly used experimental evidence to substantiate their claim, much of the evidence from those supporting biochemical limitations as the main factor of importance comes from field and correlative evidence (but see von Elert and Wolffrom 2001).”
