A review of trait‐mediated indirect interactions in ecological communities

EE Werner, SD Peacor - Ecology, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper we review the empirical studies documenting trait‐mediated indirect
interactions (TMIIs) in food webs. Basic models and empirical approaches that form the …

How prey respond to combined predators: a review and an empirical test

RA Relyea - Ecology, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Studies of phenotypic plasticity frequently ask how organisms respond to a change in their
environment, but most organisms do not experience single environmental changes …

[图书][B] Limnoecology: the ecology of lakes and streams

W Lampert, U Sommer - 2007 - books.google.com
This concise, readable introduction to limnology (the science of investigating the structure
and function of inland waters), places the subject in the context of modern ecology. Unlike …

Chemical detection of natural enemies by arthropods: an ecological perspective

M Dicke, P Grostal - Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 2001 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Food webs are overlaid with infochemical webs that mediate direct and indirect
interactions. The infochemicals may result in shifts in trait values, which affect the strength of …

Trait‐mediated effects in rocky intertidal food chains: predator risk cues alter prey feeding rates

GC Trussell, PJ Ewanchuk, MD Bertness - Ecology, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
The influence of predation on rocky intertidal community structure has long emphasized the
importance of indirect interactions. Most efforts in this area have focused on the density …

Chemical communication in aquatic systems: an introduction

C Brönmark, LA Hansson - Oikos, 2000 - JSTOR
Background Among higher terrestrial organisms we consider it selfevident that interactions
are not only influenced by visual signals, but that also olfactory and auditory senses are …

Effect of grazing and nutrient supply on periphyton biomass and nutrient stoichiometry in habitats of different productivity

H Hillebrand, M Kahlert - Limnology and Oceanography, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
The impact of grazing and nutrient supply on epilithic periphyton was investigated in factorial
field experiments in four seasons at three Swedish sites of different productivity and …

Field evidence of trait‐mediated indirect interactions in a rocky intertidal food web

GC Trussell, PJ Ewanchuk, MD Bertness - Ecology Letters, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
Studies on the implications of food web interactions to community structure have often
focused on density‐mediated interactions between predators and their prey. This approach …

Herbivore metabolism and stoichiometry each constrain herbivory at different organizational scales across ecosystems

H Hillebrand, ET Borer, MES Bracken… - Ecology …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Plant‐herbivore interactions mediate the trophic structure of ecosystems. We use a
comprehensive data set extracted from the literature to test the relative explanatory power of …

Effects of time delay and space on herbivore dynamics: linking inducible defenses of plants to herbivore outbreak

GQ Sun, SL Wang, Q Ren, Z Jin, YP Wu - Scientific Reports, 2015 - nature.com
Empirical results indicate that inducible defenses of plants have effects on herbivore
populations. However, little is known about how inducible defenses of plants have …
