Food quantity and quality regulation of trophic transfer between primary producers and a keystone grazer (Daphnia) in pelagic freshwater food webs (2007, methodology): “All samples were taken and analysed as described in Persson and Vrede (2006) .”
The importance of high-quality algal food sources in stream food webs - current status and future perspectives (2016, result): “Highly unsaturated fatty-acid content, in particular EPA, ARA and DHA increases with stream trophic position, while SAFA, especially 16:0 decreases, which is consistent with findings from lacustrine systems (Persson & Vrede, 2006; Lau et al., 2012).”
Effect of nutrition on fatty acid profiles of riverine, lacustrine, and aquaculture-raised salmonids of pre-alpine habitats (2010, background): “For lakes, data from a recent study on seasonal PUFA dynamics of lake zooplankton (Lower Lake Lunz) indicate that their potential dietary supply of n - 3 PUFA, DHA, in particular, correlates with the abundance of copepods, known to be rich in DHA (e.g., Persson & Vrede, 2006; Kainz et al., 2009), ”
