Histological and MS spectrometric analyses of the modified tissue of bulgy form tadpoles induced by salamander predation

The rapid induction of a defensive morphology by a prey species in face of a predation risk is an intriguing in ecological context; however, the physiological mechanisms that underlie this phenotypic plasticity remain uncertain. Here we investigated the phenotypic changes shown by Rana pirica tadpol...
