Chemical and Morphological Constitutive Defensive Traits of Cyanobacteria Have Different Effects on the Grazing of a Small Tropical Cladoceran

Chemical and Morphological Constitutive Defensive Traits of Cyanobacteria Have Different Effects on the Grazing of a Small Tropical Cladoceran

Antipredator defenses of bloom-forming cyanobacteria species maximize their fitness but can reduce carbon and energy transfer efficiency to higher trophic levels, making them a key regulator of plankton communities in eutrophic waters. We investigated the grazing responses of the tropical cladoceran...
