• Phenotype management: a new approach to habitat restoration (2003, background): “For other phenotypic traits, it might be the abundance of a particular type of food (Day et al., 1994; Mittelbach et al., 1999) or the regularity of predators in a habitat ( van Buskirk and McCollum, 2000 ).”
• The Lure Effect, Tadpole Tail Shape, and the Target of Dragonfly Strikes (2003, background): “This seems especially likely if predators tend to strike near the visual center of their prey or for tadpole species which develop conspicuous coloration on the tail when exposed to predators (Caldwell, 1982; McCollum and Van Buskirk, 1996; photographs in Skelly, 1997).”

• PHENOTYPIC LABILITY AND THE EVOLUTION OF PREDATOR‐INDUCED PLASTICITY IN TADPOLES (2002, background): “…possibility is difficult to discount, but a comparison between data on natural selection (Van Buskirk et al. 1997; Van Buskirk and Relyea 1998; Van Buskirk and McCollum 2000) and the results of the present study indicates that traits that most strongly improve predator escape are not necessarily…”
• Patterns and consequences of behavioural responses to predators and parasites in Rana tadpoles (2000, background): “Predator presence also affects tadpole shape, as larval anurans may demonstrate phenotypic plasticity to mediate their risk of predation (see Van Buskirk & McCollum, 2000 and older references therein).”
• Specific induced responses to different predator species in anuran larvae (2001, background): “There is good evidence that the morphological response improves survival in the presence of predators, and is maintained by natural selection imposed by predators (Van Buskirk & Relyea, 1998; Van Buskirk & McCollum, 2000a ).”
• Phenotypic plasticity: linking molecular mechanisms with evolutionary outcomes (2002, background): “... to truly adaptive plasticity will be rather scarce in natural populations, recent advances have come from two approaches: employing mutant lines with altered plasticity and comparing their fitness with wild-type (e.g., Schmitt et al., 1995; Pigliucci and Schmitt, 1999), and manipulating phenotyp”
