Meta-analysis of cyanobacterial effects on zooplankton population growth rate : species-specific responses (2008, unknown): “Field observations of the lack of large Daphnia during cyanobacterial blooms (Edmondson & Litt 1982, Infante & Abella 1985, DeMott et al. 2001) as well as results from some laboratory experiments (Webster & Peters 1978, Porter & Orcutt 1980, Gliwicz & Lampert 1990) have emphasized mechanical…”
Population Dynamics of Harmful Cyanobacteria (2005, background): “Filamentous cyanobacteria (e.g., Planktothrix) are also difficult to handle for many zooplankton species, because long filaments may clog the filtration apparatus, thus reducing the efficiency of filter feeding (Gliwicz and Lampert, 1990; DeMott et al., 2001 ).”
Understanding cyanobacteria‐zooplankton interactions in a more eutrophic world (2014, background): “Physical inhibition of the cladoceran feeding apparatus by cyanobacterial filaments can also occur (DeMott et al., 2001).”
Mesozooplankton and microzooplankton grazing during cyanobacterial blooms in the western basin of Lake Erie (2012, background): “Despite these complexities, we found that mesozooplankton grazing rates within the western basin of Lake Erie varied as a function of putatively toxic cyanobacteria (Microcystis, Anabaena, and Cylindrospermopsis) cell densities while microzooplankton grazing rates did not.”
Effects of experimentally induced cyanobacterial blooms on crustacean zooplankton communities (2003, background): “ton (Webster & Peters, 1978; DeMott et al., 2001) and the increase in cyanotoxins produced by Microcystis cells (Lampert, 1981, 1982; Reinikainen et al.”
Climate-induced shifts in an experimental phytoplankton community: a mechanistic approach (2007, background): “High abundances of cyanobacteria in freshwater systems can potentially disrupt trophic relationships, because of their low quality as a food source for invertebrate grazers (DeMott et al., 2001).”
Cyanobacterial peptides - nature's own combinatorial biosynthesis. (2006, background): “On the other hand, no clear evidence has been produced that Daphnia intoxication plays a major role in plankton dynamics, whereas grazing resistance due to colony or filament formation has been recognized as important grazing protection (Hansson et al., 1998; DeMott et al., 2001; Kagami et al., 2002”
Cyanobacterial chemical warfare affects zooplankton community composition (2007, background): “As the microcystin concentrations were moderate, a likely explanation for the low fecundity of zooplankton is ‘clogging’ of the feeding apparatus because of high algal densities (Webster & Peters, 1978; Edmondson & Litt, 1982; DeMott et al., 2001; Ghadouani et al., 2006).”
Impact of fish introduction on planktonic food webs in lakes of the Patagonian Plateau (2006, background): “Cyanobacteria, mainly the filamentous ones, interfere with large zooplankton filtering process, thus a smaller size range of zooplankton in the lakes with fish could be favored (DeMott et al., 2001).”
Changes in microcystin production in cyanobacteria exposed to zooplankton at different population densities and infochemical concentrations (2007, background): “Cyanobacteria are inadequate food sources for zooplankton owing to the existence of grazing-resistant 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…”
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): “However, DeMott et al. (2001) found that large species of cladocerans failed to grow in seston with phosphorus and PUFA supplements in the presence of filamentous cyanobacteria, suggesting interference in gathering food adversely affects zooplankton, rather than lack of nutrition.”
Lipids in aquatic ecosystems (2009, background): “Moreover, access to algal-derived FA may be constrained by food limitation (DeMott et al. 2001) , taxa size-related FA composition, 106 M.J. Kainz and A.T. Fisk as well as by the presence of toxic algae (Jüttner 2005) .”
Nutritional constraints at the cyanobacteria—Daphnia magna interface: The role of sterols (2008, methodology): “elongatus is primarily limited by the absence of sterols and that EPA becomes limiting only when the shortage in sterols has been overcome by sterol supplementation and adds to the recent findings of von Elert et al. (2003) obtained with D.”
