Transcriptomic, biochemical and individual markers in transplanted Daphnia magn...
Rivetti, Claudia; Campos, Bruno; Faria, Melissa; Català, Nuria De Castro; Malik, Amrita; Muñoz, Isabel; Tauler, Romà; Soares, Amadeu M. V. M.Daphnia magna individuals were transplanted across 12 sites from three Spanish river basins (Llobregat, Ebro, Jucar) showing different sources of pollution. Gene transcription, feeding and biochemical responses in the field were assessed and comparedwith those obtained in re-constitutedwater treatments spikedwith organic eluates obtained fromwater samples collected at the same locations and sampling periods.

Two-generational effects of contaminants in Daphnia magna : Effects of offsprin...
Campos, Bruno; Jordão, Rita; Rivetti, Claudia; Lemos, Marco; Soares, Amadeu; Tauler, Roma; Barata, CarlosThe authors set up a protocol to perform a 2-generational ring test using the existing guidelines for the Daphnia magna reproduction test. It is well known in ecology that size and quality of offspring vary across the first clutches in D. magna and that certain chemicals affect offspring quality. Therefore, the origin of the second generation is an important factor to consider. Two-generational effects across f...
