How Do Trait-Mediated Non-lethal Effects of Predation Affect Population-Level Performance of Mosquitoes?

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Non-lethal, trait-mediated effects of predation impact prey behavior and life-history traits. Studying how these effects in turn influence prey demography is crucial to understand prey life-history evolution.
