摘要
A new rearing technique ideally suitable for promoting either the parthenogenetic or the gametogenetic (ephippia) type of reproduction of Daphnia magna in the laboratory is described. Airdrying and rehydration induces rapid hatching. Using this technique it is possible to measure the toxicity of chemicals to ephippia in an 8 day test procedure. © 1979 Dr. W. Junk b.v. Publishers.
