Figure 2.

Spore yields from Daphnia infected with (a,b) the fungal parasite Metschnikowia bicuspidata and (c,d) the bacterial parasite Pasteuria ramosa on nine phytoplankton diets. Treatments were either single-parasite infections (a,c) or co-infections with both parasites (b,d). Spore yields are lacking for those treatments in which Daphnia were protected from infection by phytoplankton diet (figure 1). Abbreviations for algal names: Ana—Anabaena, Mic—Microcystis, Mic+—spiked Microcystis, Nod—Nodularia, Ank—Ankistrodesmus, Chla—Chlamydomonas, Chlo—Chlorella, Sce—Scenedesmus, Ulo—Ulothrix. Points are individual replicates and black lines represent means.
