The aim of this study was to assess the inter-specific differences in survival and reproduction
traits of two species of cladocerans to nitrite gradient. Daphnia similis and Daphnia magna …

Increasing concentrations of nitrite in surface waters may cause toxicity to aquatic
organisms. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of nitrite on life history traits of …

Nitrite and ammonia are two of the most common toxic nitrogenous pollutants in aquatic
ecosystem, which can pose a serious threat to the health of aquatic organisms …

We assessed the chronic toxicity of nitrite to Daphnia similoides and modeled the
concentration–response function of nitrite on survival, molting, and reproduction. Survival …

Nitrogenous pollutants derived from human activities not only pose direct risk on aquatic
organisms but may also indirectly endanger the stability of interspecific relations. To date …

Among the natural abiotic variables affecting the species density and composition of
cladocerans, ammonia is important. Using population growth data as tool, we studied the …

The degradation of cyanobacterial blooms often causes hypoxia and elevated
concentrations of ammonia, which can aggravate the adverse effects of blooms on aquatic …

To gain an insight into the tolerance of Daphnia to nitrite and ammonia, a modified Gaussian
model was used to describe the trends of changes in LC50s of nitrite and ammonia to …

Ammonia is a natural variable in ponds and lakes. Although an important source of nitrogen
for microalgae, at high concentrations ammonia can affect the density and diversity of …

Nitrite is a natural component of the nitrogen cycle in ecosystems; its presence in the aquatic
environment is a potential threat to animals due to its well-documented toxicity (Jensen …
