• The multifunctional gut of fish (2011, background): “Vertebrate digestive processes generally take place under anaerobic conditions (van Soest 1994) and many of the GABs are herbivorous or detritivorous and presumably require an anaerobic gut to facilitate energy extraction from fermentative processes, as seen in marine herbivorous fishes (Clements et”
• Embracing variability in amino acid δ15N fractionation: mechanisms, implications, and applications for trophic ecology (2016, background): “The biochemical and AA composition of primary producers is markedly different from that of animal tissue (roth and Hobson 2000, Clements et al. 2009), and thus, primary consumers typically need to synthesize much of their required AA pool by transamination of keto acids (Krueger and Sullivan 1984).”
• Grazing pressure on coral reefs decreases across a wide depth gradient in the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea (2010, methodology): “Note that we use the term ‘herbivorous’ in reference to fish capable of removing algal biomass from the reef surface (for a debate surrounding the use of the term see Clements et al. 2009).”
• The Gut Microbiota of Marine Fish (2018, unknown): “Clements and associates have driven research within this field and have provided critical reviews of knowledge gained in this area thus far (Clements et al., 2009, 2014).”
• Herbivory on freshwater and marine macrophytes: A review and perspective (2016, background): “There is a positive relationship between body size and degree of herbivory in aquatic omnivores: the larger the consumer, the more important plant consumption (granivory and folivory, particularly the latter) is in their diet (Clements et al., 2009; Wood et al., 2012a).”
• Integrating ecological roles and trophic diversification on coral reefs: multiple lines of evidence identify parrotfishes as microphages (2016, background): “As a result, phaeophytes are typically eaten by fishes in which algal carbohydrates are fermented to metabolically-useful SCFA by hindgut microbes (Choat & Clements, 1998; Clements et al., 2009; White et al., 2010).”
• Community ecology of mesophotic coral reef ecosystems (2010, background): “Whether nutritional value and digestibility of algae declines with depth is unknown (Clements et al. 2009) but should be investigated further.”
