Differences in size distribution of marine phytoplankton in presence versus absence of jellyfish support theoretical predictions on top-down control patterns along alternative energy pathways

While theoretical food web studies highlight the importance of alternative energy pathways in shaping community response to bottom-up and top-down forcing, empirical insight on the relevance of the predicted patterns is largely lacking. In marine plankton food webs differences in food size spectra b...
