Respiration rate data on 61 heterotrophic planktonic protozoans were compiled and analyzed as a function of body mass [wet mass (WM), dry mass (DM), carbon (C) or nitrogen (N)], temperature, measuring method (Cartesian divers, Warburg, and electrodes, among others), physiological condition (growing, starved or unspecified) and taxon (amoebae, flagellates or ciliates). Stepwise multiple-regression analyses revealed that body mass was the most important parameter, followed by the physiological condition and temperature. The taxon-specific effects of body mass were detected for ciliates. Overall, the regression models explained 84% of the variance of the respiration data. Similar analyses could not be performed for the rates of ammonia excreti...
