Application of dual stable isotopes in investigating the utilization of two wild dominant filamentous algae as food sources for Daphnia magna

In this study, we evaluated the effects of two dominant microfilamentous algae (i.e. Melosira granulata and Oscillatoria sp.), collected from the West Lake, on growth and metabolism of Daphnia magna. Our experiment utilized 13C and 15N dual labeling to calculate the carbon and nitrogen isotopic turn...
