Functionally convergent anti-predator morphologies arise through divergent cellular strategies in Daphnia

Sally W. Snyder, Ethan B Contreras, William A. Cresko

This study investigates how Daphnia lumholtzi develops head and tailspines in response to predator cues, revealing a sustained hyperplasia mechanism distinct from other species.

Non-genetic inheritance of induced defense morphologies across multiple unexposed generations of Daphnia lumholtzi

Sally W. Snyder, Walker C. Meyer, Shanie L Jorgenson…·William A. Cresko

The paper shows predator-induced body shape changes in Daphnia lumholtzi persist across multiple unexposed generations, demonstrating non-genetic inheritance of phenotypes.
