(A–J) Relationship between the Chl a-specific concentration of MAAs in phytoplankton and the life stages nauplii to adult of the copepod C. abyssorum tatricus. A time lag of ~3–4 weeks was used to potentially cover the synthesis of MAAs and the subsequent accumulation of these compounds in the animals (i.e., phytoplankton MAA content of any given sampling date is related to copepod MAA content of ~3–4 weeks after).
