Diet quality influences isotopic discrimination among amino acids in an aquatic vertebrate

Stable nitrogen isotopic composition of amino acids (δ(15)N(AA)) has recently been employed as a powerful tool in ecological food web studies, particularly for estimating the trophic position (TP) of animal species in food webs. However, the validity of these estimates depends on the consistency of...
