Feeding selection based on cell size
Grazing experiments
No significant differences in ingestion rates between A. anophagefferens clone 1708 and M. pusilla were observed in experiment 5 (Fig. 7a–c). The 50:50 Aa:ISO diet resulted in electivity indices close to zero (Table II Fig. 7b and c). When fed either a diet of 20:80 and 80:20 Aa:ISO, nauplii displayed positive electivity indices for the more abundant alga.
