Daphnia fed algal food grown at elevated temperature have reduced fitness

<p>Lake water temperature is negatively correlated with fatty acids content and P:C ratio in green algae. Hence, elevated temperature may indirectly reduce the fitness of <em>Daphnia</em> due to induced decrease in algal food quality. The aim of this study was to test the hypothese...
