Body Size, Energy Reserves, and Competitive Ability in Three Species of Cladocera
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify mechanisms of competitive ability among planktonic Clodocera. We used three species (Daphnia magna, Daphnia galeata, and Bosmina longirostris) in life—table and birth—schudle experiments to analyze the effect of low food levels on each population, and in competition experiments. Demographic traits of all species were affected by low food levels, but the smaller species suffered higher death rates. D. magna matured and reproduced well in the lowest food level studied; growth rate of the population was 0.143 d—1. Survivorship for D. galeata cohorts was poor at the lowest food level but many animals did mature and reproduce; population growth rate was 0.082 d—1. Few Bosmina individuals matured and reproduced and all were dead by the third adult instar; the population growth rate was —0.136 d—1. In the competition experiments, D. magna was the numerical dominant in high—food cultures with D. galeata, and D. galeata was the numerical dominant in cultures with Bosmina. ...

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
