• Fish and dragonfly nymph predators induce opposite shifts in color and morphology of tadpoles (2008, background): “Amphibian larvae also alter development in response to predators, often developing fine tuned, predator-specific phenotypes that involve morphological and behavioral changes (Relyea 2001, Wilson et al. 2005).”
• Camouflage and colour change: antipredator responses to bird and snake predators across multiple populations in a dwarf chameleon (2006, background): “In the longer term, phenotypic plasticity may allow organisms to develop morphological features optimal for their specific environment and suite of predators, especially when they are exposed to varying predation regimes during development ( Relyea, 2001a, b; Van Buskirk, 2001).”
• Specific induced responses to different predator species in anuran larvae (2001, background): “Earlier studies in which tadpoles exhibited differing degrees of response to different predators are all consistent with a graded dosage response to a single cue signalling risk (Semlitsch & Reyer, 1992; Kiesecker et al., 1996; Lefcort, 1996; Manteifel & Zhushev, 1998; Relyea, 2001 ).”
• A REVIEW OF TRAIT-MEDIATED INDIRECT INTERACTIONS IN ECOLOGICAL COMMUNITIES (2003, background): “In these studies, the anuran larvae responded to the presence of chemical cues of predator presence by reducing activity and altering space use (Werner 1991, Peacor and Werner 1997, Relyea 2001).”
• PREDATOR- AND COMPETITOR-INDUCED PLASTICITY: HOW CHANGES IN FORAGING MORPHOLOGY AFFECT PHENOTYPIC TRADE-OFFS (2005, background): “In predator environments, tadpoles typically forage less and develop relatively large tails and small bodies (although the suite of traits can be species specific; Relyea 2001, 2003, Van Buskirk 2002).”
• Predator‐specific changes in the morphology and swimming performance of larval Rana lessonae (2005, background): “However, fewer examples of predator-specific morphological responses have been reported for vertebrate taxa (but see Relyea 2001).”
• Positive effect of predators on prey growth rate through induced modifications of prey behaviour (2002, background): “There are also a number of laboratory experiments that demonstrate that if tadpoles are fed an equal low food level they grow at the same rate even with very large predator-induced activity reductions (Skelly & Werner 1990; Relyea 2001; Relyea 2002).”
• Pesticide Mixtures, Endocrine Disruption, and Amphibian Declines: Are We Underestimating the Impact? (2006, background): “…may also themselves be gape-limited predators (e.g., snakes; Figure 12B) (De Vito et al. 1999; Kiesecker and Blaustein 1998; Lardner 1998; Lawler et al. 1999; Nicieza 2000; O’Dwyer et al. 2000; Puttlitz et al. 1999; Relyea 2001a, 2001b, 2003; Skelly 1994; Werner 1986; Wilbur and Collins 1973).”
• The evolution of phenotypic plasticity in response to anthropogenic disturbance (2010, background): “For example, behavioural plasticity is greater than morphological plasticity in anurans exposed to predation pressure (Relyea, 2001).”
• THE LASTING EFFECTS OF ADAPTIVE PLASTICITY: PREDATOR‐INDUCED TADPOLES BECOME LONG‐LEGGED FROGS (2001, background): “…is well investigated (Smith and Van Buskirk 1995, Van Buskirk et al. 1997, Van Buskirk and Relyea 1998, Relyea 2000, Relyea and Werner 2000, Relyea 2001a, b), and larvae can be reared through metamorphosis to determine how changes in tadpole morphology translate into changes in metamorph…”
• PREDATOR CUES AND PESTICIDES: A DOUBLE DOSE OF DANGER FOR AMPHIBIANS (2003, background): “This discovery was important because most habitats contain predators, so most amphibians that experience pesticides will simultaneously experience predatory stress (Kats and Dill 1998, Relyea and Werner 1999, Relyea 2001).”
