Temporal Dynamics of A Simple Community With Intraguild Predation An Experimental Test by flashmanblack is a document available to read on EtoBox.
We explore how adding complexity to a typical predator-prey interaction affects temporal dynamics. We studied a planktonic microcosm community in which an alga is consumed by a flagellate and by a rotifer that also consumes the flagellate. The phase lags in these experiments suggest that temporal variation in flagellate growth rate is primarily driven by variation in the intensity of its consumption by rotifers.
