Abstract: Tree diversity is one of the drivers of forest resistance to herbivores. Most of the current understanding of the diversity resistance relationship comes primarily from short-term studies. Knowing whether tree diversity effects on herbivores are… read more here.

How plant neighborhood composition influences herbivory: Testing four mechanisms of associational resistance and susceptibility

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0176499
Abstract: Neighboring plants can decrease or increase each other’s likelihood of damage from herbivores through associational resistance or susceptibility, respectively. Associational effects (AE) can transpire through changes in herbivore or plant traits that affect herbivore movement,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1145918
Abstract: Some plant species express an extraordinarily high intraspecific diversity in phytochemicals (= chemodiversity). As discussed for biodiversity, higher chemodiversity may provide better protection against environmental stress, including herbivory. However, little is known about whether the… read more here.
