Tenshi Ayukai 《Journal of Oceanography》1986,42(6):487-489

Adult females ofAcartia omorii were allowed to feed on fecal pellets voided by its juveniles (copepodite stages I and II) in a mixture with the diatomThalassiosira decipiens. The rate of filtering of pellets by adult females was 50.3 ±11.5 ml indiv^–1 d^–1, being twice as high as the rate of filtering ofT. decipiens.  相似文献
