Assimilation of Cyanobacteria by the Freshwater Bivalve Nodularia douglasiae: Insights from Long-Term Laboratory and Field Feeding Experiments

In this study, we conducted long-term laboratory and field feeding experiments to investigate the ability of a freshwater bivalve, Nodularia douglasiae (recently renamed to N. nipponensis) to utilize cyanobacterial cells as food. In the laboratory experiment, N. douglasiae which was fed with 15N-lab...
