  abstract  = {Nutrition bioassays in which polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)-deficient diets were supplemented with free long-chain PUFA (>= C20) consistently revealed positive effects on somatic growth and fecundity of Daphnia. However, free PUFA are hardly available in natural diets. In general, PUFA are bound to other lipids, especially to phospholipids and triglycerides. Here, we evaluate the potential of free and phospholipid-bound dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) to support somatic growth and fecundity of Daphnia magna. In a growth experiment, supplementation of a C20 PUFA-deficient diet with free or phospholipid-bound EPA improved somatic growth rates of D. magna equally. However, the increase in fecundity was significantly more pronounced when phospholipid-bound EPA was provided. Free and phospholipid-bound EPA were provided in the same concentrations in our experiment, suggesting that the allocation to reproduction-related processes is affected differently by phospholipid-bound PUFA and free PUFA. Our finding stresses the need to consider the distribution of dietary PUFA in different lipid classes to gain a better understanding of how PUFA influence life history traits of Daphnids in the field.},

  abstract  = {Organisms eating each other are only one of many types of well documented and important interactions among species. Other such types include habitat modification, predator interference and facilitation. However, ecological network research has been typically limited to either pure food webs or to networks of only a few (<3) interaction types. The great diversity of non-trophic interactions observed in nature has been poorly addressed by ecologists and largely excluded from network theory. Herein, we propose a conceptual framework that organises this diversity into three main functional classes defined by how they modify specific parameters in a dynamic food web model. This approach provides a path forward for incorporating non-trophic interactions in traditional food web models and offers a new perspective on tackling ecological complexity that should stimulate both theoretical and empirical approaches to understanding the patterns and dynamics of diverse species interactions in nature.},
