Phenotypic plasticity of plant response to herbivore eggs: effects on resistance to caterpillars and plant development
Published in Ecology (Durham) (01-03-2013)“…Herbivory induces direct resistance responses in plants that negatively affect subsequently colonizing herbivores. Moreover, eggs of herbivorous insects can…”
