Combined effects of food quality and temperature on somatic growth and reproduction of two freshwater cladocerans (2009, background): “…studies indicated that these two algal species differ in their nutritional quality; that is, PUFA concentrations, potentially conducive to increased somatic growth of daphnids, were higher in Cryptophycae than Chlorophycae (Ahlgren et al. 1990; Brett and Müller-Navarra 1997; Brett et al. 2000).”
Essential fatty acid content and the phosphorus to carbon ratio in cultured algae as indicators of food quality for Daphnia (2002, background): “However, the relative importance of algal EFA content compared to the C : P ratio was greater than suggested by the simulation (Brett et al., 2000).”
Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) nursery lake fertilization: Review and summary of results (2004, background): “…(Hyatt et al. 2004), (2) the effects of algal species composition on availability of fatty acids required for enhanced zooplankton growth (Brett et al. 2000), (3) the influence of regional diversity pools on the availability of the large-bodied zooplankton most favored by planktivorous…”
