Combined effects of soil silicon and drought stress on host plant chemical and ultrastructural quality for leaf‐chewing and sap‐sucking insects by Teixeira, Natália C., Valim, Janete Oliveira S., Oliveira, Maria Goreti A., Campos, Wellington G.

“…It was postulated that Si‐mediated plant resistance to herbivory changes with soil water status, increasing when plants are under drought stress. We subjected…”

Silicon‐mediated resistance against specialist insects in sap‐sucking and leaf‐chewing guilds in the Si non‐accumulator collard by Teixeira, Natália C., Valim, Janete Oliveira S., Campos, Wellington G.

“…Soil amendment with Silicon (Si) can increase plant resistance against insect herbivores, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The mechanical…”

Drought-induced acclimatization of a fast-growing plant decreases insect performance in leaf-chewing and sap-sucking guilds by Valim, Janete Oliveira S., Teixeira, Natália C., Santos, Nathália A., Oliveira, Maria Goreti A., Campos, Wellington G.

“…An initial destabilization of functions triggered by drought stress in plants is followed by acclimatization and acquisition of tolerance; however, knowledge…”

Bottom-Up Mechanisms Generate the Same Temporal Pattern of Attack by a Specialist and a Generalist Caterpillar on Short-Lived Plants by Campos, Wellington G, Teixeira, Natália C, Valim, Janete O. S, Guedes, Raul Narciso C, Oliveira, Maria Goreti A

“…The local population dynamics of insect herbivores in ephemeral patches of short-lived plants are poorly known. We investigated whether a specialist and a…”
