Flexible feeding patterns of copepod Centropages tenuiremis in fluctuating conditions: a possible survival strategy to cope with disturbance
Cuilian Xu, Simin Hu, Zhiling Guo, Tao Li, Hui Huang, Leo Lai Chan, Sheng Liu
2020, 39(2): 59-68. doi: 10.1007/s13131-020-1553-9
Abstract:
Centropages tenuiremis is a species with a wide distribution range in disturbed coastal waters. However, due to a lack of dietary information, it remains unclear as to how they maintain such dominance in fluctuating conditions. In this study, C. tenu...
Spatial distribution characteristics of bacterial community structure and gene abundance in sediments of the Bohai Sea
