• Relationship between shape and trophic ecology of selected species of Sparids of the Caprolace coastal lagoon (Central Tyrrhenian sea) (2007, unknown): “…geometric morphometric approach is a valid standard tool for the study of the relationship between the shape and other non-TROPH variables such as habitat use (Motta et al. 1995a; Svanbaeck and Ekloev 2003; Kassam et al. 2004), activity, motility (Blake 1983), swimming morphology (Lindsey 1978).”

• The ecological causes of individual specialisation. (2011, background): “…is usually associated with functional trade-offs, where the use of different resources by a single individual is constrained by functional morphology, cognitive ability or digestive ability (Persson 1985; Afik & Karasov 1995; Robinson 2000; Svanbäck & Eklöv 2003, 2004; Olsson et al. 2007).”
• Ontogenetic niche shifts and resource partitioning of lake trout morphotypes (2009, background): “Alternately, ecological interactions can be examined within a lake with the goal of identifying mechanisms that maintain morphological and ecological differences (Schluter 1995; Svanback and Eklov 2003; Parsons and Robinson 2007).”
• Habitat structure, feeding mode and morphological reversibility: factors influencing phenotypic plasticity in perch (2005, background): “Since each niche is favouring a distinct but different perch morphology (Svanbäck and Eklöv, 2003, 2004) and the first niche shift is usually performed during an individual’s first couple of months (Persson, 1988; Hjelm et al., 2000), a faster response to environmental change could be expected for…”
• Seabird foraging behaviour indicates prey type (2008, result): “These results suggest that murres tailored their dive behaviour to increase capture rates of specific prey items, as has been shown to occur with other marine predators (cf. Kvitek et al. 1993, Garthe et al. 2000, Estes et al. 2003, Svanbäck & Eklöv 2003).”
• Intraspecific food competition in fishes (2006, background): “Svänback and Eklöv (2003) examined the tradeoffs between foraging efficiency and growth among different trophic morphotypes in a perch population.”
