Abstract
The data indicate a decrease in susceptibility of Daphnia magna to HgCl2 as the animals grow older, and a greater susceptibility of [male][male] over [female][female], with the parthenogenetic forms intermediate. These differences are probably associated with the metabolic differences of different ages and sexes.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
