[Life history characteristics of different genotype clones of Brachionus calyciflorus (Rotifera) population in Jinghu Lake].

By means of life table demographic approach, the life-table demographic parameters and the percentage of mictic females in the offspring of thirteen genetically different Brachionus calyciflorus clones were studied at 15 degrees C, 20 degrees C, 25 degrees C and 30 degrees C. The results showed that the responses of the generation time, average lifespan, life expectancy at hatching, intrinsic rate of population increase, net reproductive rate, and percentage of mictic females in the offspring of B. calyciflorus to increasing temperature differed with rotifer clones.
