Nutritional Ecology of Ateles chamek in lowland Bolivia: How Macronutrient Balancing Influences Food Choices (2009, background): “Researchers have successfully applied the framework to a range of vertebrate and invertebrate taxa (Chambers et al. 1995; Felton et al. 2009b; Raubenheimer and Simpson 2006; Robbins et al. 2007; Ruohonen et al. 2007; Simpson and Raubenheimer 2001, 2005).”
The nature of nutrition: a unifying framework (2011, result): “This is very similar to the ruleof compromise that has been observed in experimental studies of humans (Simpson and Raubenheimer 2005; Gosby et al. 2011), which appear to be an important contributory factor to the epidemic of obesity that has swept many countries in recent decades.”
Nutritional goals of wild primates (2009, background): “First, recent research suggests that the effect of PSMs on an animals’ physiology is intricately linked to the relative balance of nutrients and energy in the food, and that these factors cannot be assessed in isolation ( Simpson & Raubenheimer 2001; Villalba & Provenza 2005).”
Facing herbivory as you grow up: the ontogeny of resistance in plants. (2005, background): “To understand the influence of plant ontogeny on herbivory, we need more studies assessing the simultaneous variation in several plant-quality traits, such as the proportion of carbohydrates, proteins and water, relative to the concentration of secondary metabolites [ 60 ], as well as the risk of pr”
Discrimination abilities for nutrients: which difference matters for choosy birds and why? (2003, background): “ODT predicts that foragers prefer energetically profitable prey items at the attack stage (Sih & Christensen 2001), while nutrient regulation considers the multiple nutritional requirements of consumers, assuming that those food items are chosen that represent the direct link between the consumers’ ”
Protein content of diets dictates the daily energy intake of a free-ranging primate (2009, result): “This finding is in keeping with other research showing that tannins have a disproportionate effect on food intake when protein levels in food are low (Simpson and Raubenheimer 2001; Villalba and Provenza 2005).”
Plant defenses and population fluctuations of forest defoliators : mechanism-based scenarios (2005, unknown): “This contrasts with experimental evidence showing that carbohydrate/protein ratios are very important to herbivores such as locusts, and may modify the effects of secondary compounds ( Simpson & Raubenheimer 2001 ).”
Optimal foraging when regulating intake of multiple nutrients (2004, background): “…that at least some animals regulate intake of multiple nutrients independently and, instead of maximizing intake, avoid ingesting surpluses and deficits relative to regulated points (e.g. Kyriazakis et al. 1991; Raubenheimer & Simpson 1997; Berthoud & Seeley 2000; Simpson & Raubenheimer 2001a).”
The interplay between nutrient balancing and toxin dilution in foraging by a generalist insect herbivore (2002, background): “…it may be difficult to separate herbivore responses to secondary metabolites from those to other phytochemicals (including primary nutrients) because interactions among such chemicals directly influence herbivore physiology (Slansky 1992; Hagele & Rowell-Rahier 1999; Simpson & Raubenheimer 2001).”
Interactive effects of leaf maturation and phenolics on consumption and growth of a geometrid moth (2002, background): “We found that the effects of phenolics on insect growth strongly interacted with all the ILMs, including the sugar/protein ratio emphasized by Simpson & Raubenheimer (2001) .”
Linking herbivore experience, varied diets, and plant biochemical diversity (2003, background): “When tannic acid was added to foods containing various levels of protein and energy, food intake and growth of locusts declined when the ratio of protein:energy was not balanced; the decline was more pronounced when levels of protein were sub-optimal (Simpson and Raubenheimer, 2001).”
