Herbivory, intraspecific trait variability and back to herbivory

Oikos, 2022
Ungulate herbivory is a key driver of leaf trait syndromes and defense strategies at the ecological and macroevolutionary levels. Herbivory should also cause short‐term evolution within plant populations, but few studies have experimentally tested this prediction.

Herbivory and Its Consequences

Ecological Applications, 1993
We argue that herbivores often induce nonlinear or biphasic growth and development in plants. Collectively these individual responses translate into a system—level optimization curve wherein at low levels of herbivory overall community responses show increases in production potential, whereas extreme herbivory causes extreme reduction in productivity ...

Herbivory

2015
Herbivory is common and widespread in estuarine systems, and numerous invertebrate and vertebrate taxa can act as herbivores in these habitats (see Herbivorous Grazers). Estuaries worldwide vary substantially in herbivore densities and consumption rates, leading to corresponding variation in the trophic impact and ecosystem-level importance of ...

HERBIVORY MEDIATES GRASS–ENDOPHYTE RELATIONSHIPS

Ecology, 2007
Endophytic fungi are plant symbionts living asymptomatically within plant tissues. Neotyphodium spp., which are asexual vertically transmitted systemic fungal endophytes of cool-season grasses, are predicted to be plant mutualists. These endophytes increase host plant resistance to environmental stresses and/or increase the production of alkaloid-based

Terrestrial plant tolerance to herbivory

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1994
Damage to plants by herbivores is ubiquitous and sometimes severe. Tolerance is the capacity of a plant to maintain its fitness through growth and reproduction after sustaining herbivore damage. Recent physiological and ecological work indicates that tolerance mechanisms are numerous and varied.
