Phytoplankton essential fatty acid and phosphorus content constraints on Daphnia somatic growth and reproduction (2006, methodology): “Liposome and EFA supplements—Phosphatidylcholine liposomes (Sigma sterile pyrogen free preliposome formulation 5) were formulated and loaded in accordance with the liposome encapsulation methods described by Ravet et al. (2003).”
Application of liposome and stable isotope tracer techniques to study polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in marine zooplankton (2007, background): “Liposomes have previously been used to introduce compounds of interest to a variety of aquatic organisms (Ravet et al., 2003).”
Lipids in aquatic ecosystems (2009, background): “…et al. 2004; d Brett et al. 2006 ; e Wang and Fisher 1998; f E.g., temperature adaptation, Dey et al. 1993 ; g Martin-Creuzburg and von Elert 2004; h Ravet et al. 2003 ; i von Elert 2002; j For ribbed mussles ( Geukensia demissa ): Bergen et al. 2001; k Rohr and Crumrine 2005 ; l Persson and…”
Phytoplankton community ecology: principles applied in San Francisco Bay (2005, unknown): “Marine dinoflagellates are rich in DHA, diatoms are rich in EPA (Olsen 1999), and cryptophytes have high contents of both (Ravet et al. 2003), so the phytoplankton in San Francisco Bay are of high nutritional quality.”
Differential effects of phosphorus and fatty acids on Daphnia magna growth and reproduction (2005, background): “However, most studies have only described the effect on growth by switching the availability of fatty acids between present or not present, although recently Ravet et al. (2003) investigated gradients of fatty-acid mixtures; to our knowledge, no one has investigated gradients of single fatty acids.”
The Importance of Phytoplankton Biomolecule Availability for Secondary Production (2017, background): “The only source of long chain PUFAs in pelagic food webs is phytoplankton whose FA profiles are taxon-specific (Müller-Navarra et al., 2000; von Elert, 2002; Ravet et al., 2003; Taipale et al., 2013).”
Nutritional constraints at the cyanobacteria—Daphnia magna interface: The role of sterols (2008, background): “The correlative field data of Müller-Navarra et al. (2000) were corroborated experimentally by Ravet et al. (2003), who reported that the growth of Daphnia pulex on a cyanobacterial diet is improved by EPA supplementation.”
Daphnia fatty acid composition reflects that of their diet (2006, background): “However, in this context it is worth noting that when Ravet et al. (2003) added small amounts of the same cyanobacteria (i.e., 20% of total biomass) to cryptophyte taxa mixtures they did not notice improved growth or reproduction.”
