Crustacean Zooplankton Ingestion of Potentially Toxic <i>Microcystis</i>: In Situ Estimation Using <i>mcyE</i> Gene Gut Content Detection in a Large Temperate Eutrophic Lake

Crustacean Zooplankton Ingestion of Potentially Toxic <i>Microcystis</i>: In Situ Estimation Using <i>mcyE</i> Gene Gut Content Detection in a Large Temperate Eutrophic Lake

Grazing by zooplankton can regulate bloom-forming cyanobacteria but can also transfer toxin-producing cells, as well as toxic metabolites, to the food web. While laboratory investigations have provided extensive knowledge on zooplankton and toxic cyanobacteria interactions, information on zooplankto...
