P.I. : HAY, MARK E. Proposal #: 95-29784 PROPOSAL ABSTRACT Understanding prey defenses is fundamental to a wide range of ecological and evolutionary topics within marine communities. For example, investigations of differences among species in secondary metabolites, palatability, and susceptibility to consumers have provided insights into factors driving specialization, affecting distribution and community organization, and determining feeding patterns and digestive efficiencies. The proposed research will focus on within- individual differences and the plasticity of individuals to respond to perturbations in their environments.

P.I.：Hay，Mark E.Proposal#：95-29784 Proposal摘要理解猎物防御是海洋生物群落内广泛的生态和进化主题的基础。例如，对不同物种在次生代谢物、适口性和对消费者的敏感性方面的差异的调查，提供了对驱动专业化、影响分布和社区组织以及决定喂养模式和消化效率的因素的洞察。拟议的研究将侧重于个体内部的差异以及个体对环境中的扰动做出反应的可塑性。
