Does anthropogenic nitrogen deposition induce phosphorus limitation in herbivorous insects? [PDF]

, 2012
Anthropogenic nitrogen deposition has shifted many ecosystems from nitrogen ( N ) limitation to phosphorus ( P ) limitation. Although well documented in plants, no study to date has explored whether N deposition exacerbates P limitation at ...

Independent evolution of ancestral and novel defenses in a genus of toxic plants (Erysimum, Brassicaceae)

eLife, 2020
Phytochemical diversity is thought to result from coevolutionary cycles as specialization in herbivores imposes diversifying selection on plant chemical defenses.

Plant‐derived differences in the composition of aphid honeydew and their effects on colonies of aphid‐tending ants [PDF]

, 2014
In plant–ant–hemipteran interactions, ants visit plants to consume the honeydew produced by phloem‐feeding hemipterans. If genetically based differences in plant phloem chemistry change the chemical composition of hemipteran honeydew, then the plant's ...

Defense of Milkweed Bugs (Heteroptera: Lygaeinae) against Predatory Lacewing Larvae Depends on Structural Differences of Sequestered Cardenolides

Insects, 2020
Predators and parasitoids regulate insect populations and select defense mechanisms such as the sequestration of plant toxins. Sequestration is common among herbivorous insects, yet how the structural variation of plant toxins affects defenses against ...
