Phenotypic lability and the evolution of predator-induced plasticity in tadpoles.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Feb 2002

Van Buskirk J

Abstract excerpt

The hypothesis that predator-induced defenses in anuran larvae are maintained by divergent selection across multiple predation environments has not been fully supported by empirical results. One reason may be that traits that respond slowly to environmental variation experience a fitness cost not incorporated in the standard adaptive model, due to a time lag between detecting the state of the environment and...
