Ambiguous role of phlorotannins as chemical defenses in the brown alga Fucus vesiculosus (2004, background): “These seaweeds are generally palatable and A. valida is known to grow and survive well on diets of mixed algae (Cruz-Rivera & Hay 2001).”
Trophic importance of Laminaria hyperborea to kelp forest consumers and the importance of bacterial degradation to food quality (2003, background): “The feeding habits of these animals include herbivory, detritivory and omnivory (Lawrence 1975, Nicotri 1977, Nair & Anger 1979b, Mann 1982b, Hagen 1983, Shillaker & Moore 1987, Hay et al. 1988, Duggins & Eckman 1997, Cruz-Rivera & Hay 2000b, 2001, Toth & Pavia 2002a,b).”
Geographic variation among herbivore populations in tolerance for a chemically rich seaweed (2002, background): “3), among other factors (also see Duffy and Hay 1991, 1994, Cruz-Rivera and Hay 2000, 2001).”
Patterns of gammaridean amphipod abundance and species composition associated with dominant subtidal macroalgae from the western Antarctic Peninsula (2007, background): “These factors include epiphytic architecture and community composition (Hacker and Steneck 1990; Mukai and Iijima 1995; Pavia et al. 1999), chemical defenses (Stachowicz and Hay 1999), predation (Wooster 1998; Sparrevik and Leonardsson 1999), structural complexity and toughness (Lubchenco 1978; Park”
