| Impact Description | Rotifers have been widely used as a bioindicator species in pollution monitoring, and due to their sensitivity to pollutants and ease of culture, they have become important tools in ecotoxicological testing. However, there is no evidence supporting that Brachionus leydigii will offer any advantage as an ecological indicator as compared to rotifers already present in the Great Lakes. |
