Evidence for a defensive ceiling in the effectiveness of plant silicon defences against an insect herbivore

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Silicon‐mediated resistance in wheat reaches a defensive plateau; accumulating silicon beyond 2mM provides no additional benefit for suppressing insect herbivore relative growth rates. Silicon supplementation significantly increases wheat biomass and effectively ameliorates plant mass losses caused by Helicoverpa armigera herbivory. Lower mandible wear

A Causal Map Framework to Explain Support for Strong Leaders in Politics

International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The article introduces a computational theory explaining why some people support strong leaders in politics, arguing that this support sometimes arises because people view a strong leader as means to address social problems. The theory proposes that people develop a causal map concerning the consequences of the rise of a strong leader.
