Plant defense elicitors: plant fitness versus wheat stem sawfly [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 The wheat stem sawfly (WSS), Cephus cinctus Norton, is an important wheat pest in the Northern Great Plains of the USA. No single control measure effectively suppresses WSS damage.

Tetranychus evansi spider mite populations suppress tomato defenses to varying degrees
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Plant defense suppression is an offensive strategy of herbivores, in which they manipulate plant physiological processes to increase their performance. Paradoxically, defense suppression does not always benefit the defense‐suppressing herbivores, because

A comprehensive meta-analysis reveals the key variables and scope of seed defense priming
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 BackgroundWhen encountered with pathogens or herbivores, the activation of plant defense results in a penalty in plant fitness. Even though plant priming has the potential of enhancing resistance without fitness cost, hurdles such as mode of application ...

Basic and Applied EcologyPlants have evolved direct and indirect defences against herbivores, which may come at a cost to other plant functions. Many plants can uptake and deposit large amounts of silicon within plant tissue, creating structures which can reduce herbivore ...
