Abstract excerpt
Transgenerational effects can vary among genotypes of a given species; however, we cannot yet predict the direction and magnitude of the transgenerational effects. Here, we explored whether a genotype's transgenerational fitness effects correlate with plant resistance and the production of specialized metabolites. Thus, we exposed monoclonal, single-descendant lineages from 56 globally distributed genotypes of...
