Geographic variation in a predator-induced defense and its genetic basis.

Ecology - 1 Aug 2007

Kishida Osamu, Trussell Geoffrey C, Nishimura Kinya

Abstract excerpt

Predator-induced morphological defenses are a well-known form of phenotypic plasticity, but we continue to have a limited understanding of geographic variation in these responses and its genetic basis. Here we examine genetic variation and geographic differentiation in the inducible defenses of tadpoles (Rana pirica) in response to predatory salamander larvae (Hynobius retardatus). To do so, we crossed male and...
