DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvy033
Abstract: Abstract Specialized herbivorous insects have the ability to transition between host plant taxa, and considering the co-evolutionary history between plants and the organisms utilizing them is important to understanding plant insect interactions. We investigated the… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.5075
Abstract: Plants and insects are constantly interacting in complex ways through forest communities since hundreds of millions of years. Those interactions are often related to variations in the climate. Climate change, due to human activities, may… read more here.
