The impact of larval predators and competitors on the morphology and fitness of juvenile treefrogs.

Oecologia - 1 Mar 2003

Relyea Rick A, Hoverman Jason T

Abstract excerpt

Studies of phenotypic plasticity typically focus on traits in single ontogenetic stages. However, plastic responses can be induced in multiple ontogenetic stages and traits induced early in ontogeny may have lasting effects. We examined how gray treefrog larvae altered their morphology in four different larval environments and whether different larval environments affected the survival, growth, development, and...
