Can microcystins affect zooplankton structure community in tropical eutrophic reservoirs?
Braz. j. biol; 76 (2), 2016
Abstract The aim of our study was to assess whether cyanotoxins (microcystins) can affect the composition of the zooplankton community, leading to domination of microzooplankton forms (protozoans and rotifers). Temporal variations in concentrations of microcystins and zooplankton biomass were analyzed in...
