Vertical food web interactions [electronic resource] : evolutionary patterns and driving forces / K. Dettner, G. Bauer, W. Völkl, eds.
Vertical food web interactions are strongly influenced by the life history of the partners involved. Typical examples are presented for plant-phytophage and host-parasite systems and for multitrophic interactions, as well as for chemoecological aspects of the interactions. This volume brings togethe...
