To stay or to go: resource diversity alters the dispersal behavior of sympatric cryptic marine nematodes by Rodgee Mae Guden, Sofie Derycke, Tom Moens

“…In this study, we investigated how food diversity affects the dispersal behavior of three co-occurring cryptic species of the marine bacterivorous nematode complex Litoditis marina (Pm I, Pm III and Pm IV). Using microcosms composed of a local patch (inoculation plate), a connection tube, and a distant patch (dispersal plate), we examined nematode dispersal patterns with bacteria serving as the food source. …”
