Ecological mechanisms regulating the dynamics of the field rotifer population in a subtropical lake: evidence from the density, reproduction, and morphology of a case rotifer, Brachionus angularis

Understanding the ecological mechanisms driving the dynamics of field rotifer populations remains a challenge in ecology. Brachionus angularis (Rotifera) is preferred in such studies because of their planktonic behavior, high fecundity, and absence of cryptic species. In this study, one-year zooplan...
