Thwarting predators? A three-dimensional perspective of morphological alterations in the freshwater crustacean Daphnia.
Predation is a major selective agent, so that many taxa evolved phenotypically plastic defensive mechanisms. Among them are many species of the microcrustacean genus Daphnia, which respond to an increased predation risk by developing inducible morphological alterations. Some of these features are ob...
