Abstract:
Culture of many zooplankton species is mostly depended on microalga because they have many of specific key properties for zooplankton ingestion. In present research, ingestion rate of copepod Eucyclops serrulatus was determined using two green microalga of Scenedesmus quadricauda and Chlorella vulgaris at different algal concentration (very low, low, medium, high). Results showed that ingestion rate of copepod E. serrulatus was significantly (P
