| Title | Reciprocity in predator-prey interactions: exposure to defended prey and predation risk affects consumer life history and morphology |
| Creator | Hammill, Edd Beckerman, A. P. |
| Description | A vast body of literature exists documenting the morphological, behavioural and life history changes that predators induce in prey. However, little attention has been paid to how these induced changes feed back and affect the predators' life history and morphology. Larvae of the phantom midge Chaoborus flavicans are intermediate predators in a food web with Daphnia pulex as the basal resource and planktivorous fish as the top predator. C. flavicans prey on D. pulex and are themselves prey for... |
