Eulimnadia texana

Population survival

We ended the experiment 16 days after hydration. All single-density individuals and those in cup 5.2 survived, cup 5.1 went from a population density of 5 to 4.1 inds/400 ml, cup 10.1 to 9.3 inds/400 ml, cup 10.2 to 6.7 inds/400 ml and cup 15 to 12.1 inds/400 ml ( Fig. 2A ; Table 1A).

Fig. 2. Eulimnadia texana experiment (number of individuals = 49). Individuals were transferred into cups of various population densities three days after hydration (1, 5, 10 and 15 individuals/400 ml). A, Population survival. All individuals in cup 5.2 and in the four single-individual cups survived, while density declined fast in cups 10.2 and 15. B, Superimposed growth curves for all nine cups (compare with Fig. 3).
