Impact of predatory fish kairomones on morphology and life history traits of Cladoceraspecies: Macrothrix spinosa
The study was carried out on a locally common cladoceran, Macrothrix spinosa.In present study, the effects of exposure to predator kairomones on some morphological (body length, carapace length) and life history (clutch size, age at first reproduction) characters in M. spinosa was investigated. The G. affiniskairomones significantly altered both morphological and life history characteres of the cladoceran M. spinosa.
