Inducible defences as key adaptations for the successful invasion of Daphnia lumholtzi in North America?

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 May 2009

Engel Katharina, Tollrian Ralph

Abstract excerpt

The mechanisms underlying successful biological invasions often remain unclear. In the case of the tropical water flea Daphnia lumholtzi, which invaded North America, it has been suggested that this species possesses a high thermal tolerance, which in the course of global climate change promotes its establishment and rapid spread. However, D. lumholtzi has an additional remarkable feature: it is the only water...
