(A) Mortality reduction of the three strategies and (B) analytically determined parameter space favoring the different primed stress responses under exponential growth depending on stress duration and priming costs. Abbreviations: Inline graphic = (baseline) priming costs for which the three responses grant a benefit equal to the naïve response; Inline graphic = initial mortality; Inline graphic = final mortality level of the stress response; Inline graphic = primed (reduced) Inline graphic (stronger response); Inline graphic = beginning of the triggering stress; Inline graphic = end of the response lag phase; Inline graphic = end of the primed (shorter) response lag phase (earlier response); Inline graphic = time point when Inline graphic has been reached; Inline graphic = time point when Inline graphic has been reached with an earlier or faster stress response; Inline graphic = (baseline) stress duration when the three responses grant a benefit equal to the naïve response; Inline graphic = end of triggering stress; Inline graphic = slope of the mortality reduction; Inline graphic = primed (higher) slope of the mortality reduction (faster response)
