Predator-induced phenotypic plasticity in organisms with complex life histories

MF Benard - Annu. Rev. Ecol. Evol. Syst., 2004 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Predator-induced phenotypic plasticity is widespread in nature and includes
variation in life history, morphology, and behavior. In organisms with complex life histories …

[图书][B] The Field of Cloth of Gold

event: an extraordinary international gathering of Renaissance rulers unparalleled in its …

Ecological and developmental context of natural selection: maternal effects and thermally induced plasticity in the frog Bombina orientalis

RH Kaplan, PC Phillips - Evolution, 2006 - academic.oup.com
Variation in fitness generated by differences in functional performance can often be traced to
morphological variation among individuals within natural populations. However …

Linking antipredator behaviour, ingestion, gut evacuation and costs of predator-induced responses in tadpoles

UK Steiner - Animal Behaviour, 2007 - Elsevier
Many prey organisms reduce their activity to reduce predation risk. A common argument is
that a reduction in activity is one of the highest costs of defence. I exposed predator-induced …

Strong selection barriers explain microgeographic adaptation in wild salamander populations

JL Richardson, MC Urban - Evolution, 2013 - academic.oup.com
Microgeographic adaptation occurs when populations evolve divergent fitness advantages
across the spatial scales at which focal organisms regularly disperse. Although an …

Salamander evolution across a latitudinal cline in gape‐limited predation risk

MC Urban - Oikos, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
General predictions of community dynamics require that insights derived from local habitats
can be scaled up to explain phenomena across geographic scales. Across these larger …

Microgeographic adaptations of spotted salamander morphological defenses in response to a predaceous salamander and beetle

MC Urban - Oikos, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Spatial heterogeneity in the selection imposed by different predator species could promote
the adaptive diversification of local prey populations. However, high gene flow might swamp …

Alternative forms of axial startle behaviors in fishes

YC Liu, ME Hale - Zoology, 2014 - Elsevier
For most aquatic vertebrates, axial movements play key roles in the performance of startle
responses. In fishes, these axis-based startle behaviors fall into three distinct categories–the …

Ontogeny of escape swimming performance in the spotted salamander

T Landberg, E Azizi - Functional Ecology, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
The life stage suffering the highest predation rate is expected to have the highest escape
performance unless developmental or functional constraints interfere. Peak aquatic escape …

Thermal acclimation of swimming performance in newt larvae: the influence of diel temperature fluctuations during embryogenesis

E Měráková, L Gvoždík - Functional Ecology, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Thermal acclimation is one of the basic strategies by which organisms cope with thermal
heterogeneity of the environment. Under predictable variation in environmental …
