DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9041
Abstract: Abstract Aposematic animals advertise their toxicity or unpalatability with bright warning coloration. However, acquiring and maintaining chemical defenses can be energetically costly, and consequent associations with other important traits could shape chemical defense evolution. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00425-019-03292-2
Abstract: Local and systemic induction of JA-associated chemical defenses and resistance to western flower thrips in Chrysanthemum are spatially variable and dependent on the site of the JA application. Plants have evolved numerous inducible defense traits… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11103-021-01213-0
Abstract: KEY MESSAGE Chemical defenses are imperative for plant survival, but their production is often associated with growth restrictions. Here we review the most recent theories to explain this complex dilemma of plants. Plants are a… read more here.
