This dataset contains the raw data of three different experiments: Stylonychia pustulata grown in monoculture, in mixture with P.aurelia and in mixture wit P.caudatum. The abundances of three to five cultures per experiment and the calculated mean abundances of the experiments are reported. Note, that for day 20 - 25, single values are missing and only the mean is reported.
