Abstract
Marine consumers and their prey display plasticity that affects the outcomes of
their dynamic interactions as well as community structure and ecosystem function.
Aquatic chemical signals induced plasticity in consumers and prey from a broad range
of taxonomy (phytoplankton to fishes), sizes (microscopic to macroscopic), and habitats
(pelagic to benthic), and this complex plasticity strongly affected consumer-prey
interactions. Two fishes,
