Dietary Preference of Gammarus pulex and Asellus aquaticus during a Laboratory Breeding Programme for Ecotoxicological Studies
Figure 1
Box and whisker plot of leaf material consumed for each treatment (g) by G. pulex. The figure illustrates that during 24 hour feeding assays, G. pulex consumed a greater proportion of naturally conditioned leaf material, compared to artificially conditioned and unconditioned ( replicated tests for each treatment).
