Distinct defense strategies allow different grassland species to cope with root herbivore attack

2019-03-06

Abstract excerpt

Root-feeding insect herbivores are of substantial evolutionary, ecological and economical importance. Plants can resist insect herbivores through a variety of tolerance and resistance strategies. To date, few studies have systematically assessed the prevalence and importance of these strategies for root-herbivore interactions across different plant species. Here, we characterize the defense strategies used by thre...
