Abstract:
Top-down control is an important type of interspecies interactions in food webs. It is especially important for aquatic ecosystems. Phytoplankton grazers contribute to the top-down control of phytoplankton populations. The paper is focused on the role of benthic filter-feeders in the control of plankton populations as a result of water filtering and the removal of cells of plankton from the water column. New data on the inhibitory effects of surfactants and detergents on benthic filter-feeders (freshwater mussels Unio tumidus, U. pictorum, marine mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis, M. edulis, and oysters Crassostrea gigas) are presented and discussed. Importance and efficiency of that approach to the problems of eutrophication and water self-purification is pointed out. Chemical pollution may pose a threat to the natural top-down control of phytoplankton and water self-purification process. The latter is considered an important prerequisite for sustainable use of aquatic resources.

IMPORTANT INFO ON HIGH RANK, SCORING:
the information from Springer web-site.
January 8, 2015:
The Altmetric score is one measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that this article has received.
This article scored 4.25
The context below was calculated when this article was last mentioned on 8th January 2015
Compared to all articles in Hydrobiologia: So far Altmetric has tracked 439 articles from this journal. They typically receive a little less attention than average, with a mean score of 2.0 vs the global average of 5.1. This article has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its peers. | In the 85%ile | Ranks 66th |
All articles of a similar age: Older articles will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this score to the 73,904 tracked articles that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any journal. This article has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries. | In the 82%ile |
Other articles of a similar age in Hydrobiologia We're also able to compare this article to 33 articles from the same journal and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This article has done very well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries. | In the 90%ile | Ranks 3rd |
All articles More generally, Altmetric has tracked 2,797,588 articles across all journals so far. Compared to these this article has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all articles ever tracked by Altmetric. | In the 79%ile |
