Behavioural activity levels and expression of stress proteins under predation risk in two damselfly species
2009-06-01
Abstract excerpt
1. It has become apparent that predators may strongly decrease prey fitness without direct contact with the prey, as they induce the development of defence systems that limit the availability of energy for growth and reproduction. Recent studies suggest that stress proteins may help prey organisms deal with this stress. The pattern is not general, however, and little is known about species differences in physiolog...
