Dietary Preference of Gammarus pulex and Asellus aquaticus during a Laboratory Breeding Programme for Ecotoxicological Studies
Figure 2
Box and whisker plot of leaf material consumed for each treatment (g) by A. aquaticus. The figure illustrates that during 24-hour feeding assays, A. aquaticus consumed a greater proportion of naturally conditioned leaf material, compared to the artificially conditioned and unconditioned ( replicated tests for each treatment).
