Testing physiologically-based resource allocation rules in laboratory experiments with Daphnia magna Straus

The rules governing the allocation of available resources to varying physiological processes are evaluated in three physiologically-based models of individual Daphnia. In laboratory experiments using a single clone, subjected to varying regimes of food deprivation, growth was found to vary inversely...
