Density-dependent expression of plasticity in larval morphology : effects of actual and apparent competitors

Larvae of several marine invertebrates are known to alter their morphology adaptively as a response to changes in conditions, such as food and predator density, within plankton communities. In contrast, nothing is known about plastic re sponses to the density of competitors, which could signal the p...
