Herbivore-Induced Plant Volatiles Mediate Host Selection by a Root Herbivore [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2012
In response to herbivore attack, plants mobilize chemical defenses and release distinct bouquets of volatiles. Aboveground herbivores are known to use changes in leaf volatile patterns to make foraging decisions, but it remains unclear whether belowground herbivores also use volatiles to select suitable host plants. We therefore investigated how above-

Large Herbivores

2022
Large herbivores can influence the population dynamics of their forage plants. Feeding means a disturbance for the affected plants. Although in most cases herbivores consume only a relatively small fraction of the total phytomass, they influence the intra- and interspecific competition between plants. Whether and to what extent herbivores influence the

Competition and Facilitation in Multispecies Plant-Herbivore Systems of Productive Environments [PDF]

open access: yesEcology Letters, 1998
We develop a multispecies plant-herbivore model to explore how plant competition for light and the selectivity of herbivores affect abundance patterns of plants and herbivores along productivity gradients.

When is a herbivore not a herbivore?

Oecologia, 1985
Young herbivores are not herbivores. With the apparent exception of some chewing insects they cannot survive and growth without eating animal or microbial protein. Further reinforcing how short available nitrogen is in plant food, adult herbivores must feed selectively and depend on intestinal microorganisms to obtain sufficient nitrogen for ...
