Fungi in lake ecosystems (2010, background): “The fungal flora on zooplankton is less diverse than that on algae (Ebert 2005, Johnson et al. 2006), because this niche seems to be mostly occupied by Oomycete species (Kingdom Chromista) (Sparrow 1968, Miao & Nauwerck 1999).”
Long-term trends in zooplankton of Dorset, Ontario, lakes: the probable interactive effects of changes in pH, total phosphorus, dissolved organic carbon, and predators (2008, background): “2006), by competition with other zooplankton (Allan 1973), by parasites (Yan and Larsson 1988; Ebert 2005), and by both vertebrate and invertebrate predators (e.”
Cyclical Parthenogenesis in Daphnia: Sexual Versus Asexual Reproduction (2009, background): “Many natural populations are infected by parasites, some of which induce severe virulence effects, resulting in fitness decline in the host (Green 1974; Stirnadel and Ebert 1997; Decaestecker et al. 2005; Ebert 2005; Johnson et al. 2006; Lass and Ebert 2006).”
Fitness consequences of immune responses: strengthening the empirical framework for ecoimmunology (2011, background): “Several decades of both laboratory and field research have generated a deep understanding of the fitness consequences of parasitism in D. magna (Ebert 2005).”
