Sampling was conducted in Yenisehir Lake (Hatay, Turkey) on a monthly basis between May 2003 and April 2004. The results of the present study showed that, among the parameters considered, temperature and chlorophyll-a concentration were the main parameters influencing the body length of T. crassus and E. drieschi in Yenisehir Lake. For E. drieschi, egg production was also affected by chlorophyll-a levels.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCopepodbody lengthegg productionwater quality parametersYenisehir LakeSeasonal variations in body length and fecundity of 2 copepod species: Thermocyclops crassus (Fischer, 1853) and Eudiaptomus drieschi (Poppe & Mrazek, 1895)Article38222222810.3906/zoo-1007-72-s2.0-84892552662Q2WOS:000329919500012Q4
