Sensory Ecology of Predator-Induced Phenotypic Plasticity
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019 Ecological communities are organized in trophic levels that share manifold interactions forming complex food webs. Infochemicals can further modify these interactions, e.g., by inducing defenses in prey. The micro-crustacean Daphnia is able to respond to
