We compared changes in nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) and protein (PRO) contents of crustacean zooplankton (Calanus sinicus and Artemia sp.) to starving exposure. We measured a reduction in the individual DNA, RNA and PRO of meta-naupliar stage of Artemia sp. following 2-days of starvation, while such response was not clear for starved copepodite stage 5 of C. sinicus. We measured a significantly reduced RNA:DNA ratio for the starved individuals of both species after 2 days, whereas there was no significant difference in the RNA:PRO ratios of fed and starved individuals of both species. Although DNA, RNA and PRO of individuals were slightly reduced for C. sinicus following prolonged starvation (6-days), the declines of RNA:DNA and RNA:PRO ratios were disappeared due to the relative decrease of DNA and PRO to RNA. These results demonstrate significant negative responses of RNA:DNA ratio to starving exposure and highlight these biochemical measurements as useful proxies of physiological responses to food limited conditions for crustacean zooplankton. However, we also note that RNA:DNA ratio is representative of short-term feeding history (i.e., short starvation) for crustacean zooplankton.
