Their often high abundance and  their function, as transfer organisms from algae and dead organic  matter to macro-invertebrates and fish, make them one of the most  important organisms to affect the biological processes in freshwater  ecosystems. The Cladocera living among the plankton often have  recognizable distribution patterns and migrations; their size and  brief life cycles make them popular in laboratory experiments; their  cyclic parthenogenesis makes them suitable for many aspects of  population genetics; and they are present as microfossils in lake  sediments. All these features confer a unique status on the Cladocera  as model organisms in many aspects of modern systematics and ecology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792334712\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-0021-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 307\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44343414489228,"sku":"9780792334712","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792334712.jpg?v=1771513380","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792334712","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
