Herbivory enhances cadmium foraging in the invasive hyperaccumulating plant Phytolacca americana
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biological invasions and heavy metal pollution are two pervasive environmental challenges threatening global ecosystems. While the elemental defence hypothesis posits that certain plants accumulate heavy metals to deter herbivores, it remains unclear whether invasive ...
