Predator-induced transgenerational plasticity in animals: a meta-analysis
There is growing evidence that the environment experienced by one generation can
influence phenotypes in the next generation via transgenerational plasticity (TGP). One of …

Playing it safe; risk‐induced trait responses increase survival in the face of predation
Predation risk effects are impacts on prey caused by predators that do not include
consumption. These can include changes in prey behaviour, physiology, and morphology …

The impact of food availability on risk-induced trait responses in prey
Prey respond to predation risk by altering their morphology, physiology, and behavior,
responses that may come at a cost to prey foraging and growth. However, their perception of …

Host life-history traits predict haemosporidian parasite prevalence in tanagers (Aves: Thraupidae)
Vector-borne parasites are important ecological drivers influencing life-history evolution in
birds by increasing host mortality or susceptibility to new diseases. Therefore, understanding …
