Chemical ecology of predator–prey interactions in aquatic ecosystems: a review and prospectusThe present review is one in the special series of reviews on animal–plant interactions. (2010, unknown): “Mathis and Smith (1993a) and Chivers and Mirza (2001a, 2001b) have found that alarm cues detected from feces can mediate learned predator recognition, by chemically labelling the predator as threatening.”
The role of learning in the development of threat-sensitive predator avoidance by fathead minnows (2005, background): “Prey animals often show antipredator responses to chemical cues of predators fed conspecific of the prey, but not those fed another diet (Chivers & Mirza 2001).”
Predator-induced changes in morphology of a prey fish: the effects of food level and temporal frequency of predation risk (2008, background): “Such diet dependent anti-predator responses are widespread in aquatic predator/prey systems (review Chivers and Mirza 2001).”
Learning threat-sensitive predator avoidance: how do fathead minnows incorporate conflicting information? (2006, background): “Prey animals often show antipredator responses to chemical cues of predators that have been fed conspecifics of the prey, but not those that have been fed another diet (Chivers & Mirza 2001).”
Making sense of predator scents: investigating the sophistication of predator assessment abilities of fathead minnows (2004, background): “Diet-dependent anti-predator responses are extremely widespread in predator–prey interactions, as shown in a recent review by Chivers and Mirza (2001a).”
Response of juvenile rainbow trout to varying concentrations of chemical alarm cue: response thresholds and survival during encounters with predators (2003, methodology): “Lawrence and Smith (1989) used this technique to calculate the active space of 1 cm2 of minnow skin as being greater than 58 823 L.”
Can foraging birds assess predation risk by scent (2008, background): “In addition, many prey species can use olfaction to assess their predator's diet (Chivers & Mirza 2001; Mirza & Chivers 2003), thereby determining the threat posed by a given predator.”
Threat-sensitive predator avoidance by slimy sculpins: understanding the importance of visual versus chemical information (2001, background): “In some predator – prey systems the diet of the predator has been shown to be an important determinant of the strength of the antipredator response ( re - viewed in Chivers and Mirza 2001 ) .”
Learning about Danger: Chemical Alarm Cues and Threat‐Sensitive Assessment of Predation Risk by Fishes (2011, background): “Dietary cues are known to allow for the recognition of novel predators (Mathis & Smith 1993a, 1993b; Chivers & Mirza 2001).”
