Top-down control of planktonic ciliates by microcrustacean predators is stronger in lakes than in the ocean
Planktonic ciliates are major components of pelagic food webs in both marine and freshwaters. Their population dynamics are controlled ‘bottom-up’ by prey availability and ‘top-down’ by microcrustacean predators. In oceans, copepods are the main ciliate predators while in lakes cladocerans are the t...
