A review of plant phenolics and endozoochory
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2024.Phenolic compounds, vital secondary metabolites in plants, evolved to protect against UV radiation and oxidative stress during their transition to terrestrial environments. In modern plants, phenolics serve primarily as defense mechanisms against pathogens and herbivores, while also influencing seed dormancy and viability.

Different factors that modify anti-predator behaviour in guanacos (Lama guanicoe)
Acta Theriologica, 2014 Animals optimize the trade-off between the cost of not fleeing and the benefits of staying because the factors that influence flight decisions and the disturbance level of a particular stimulus can vary both spatially and temporally. Different factors (human impact and habitat characteristics) likely to modify anti-predator behaviour in different types
