Natural selection on plant resistance to herbivores in the native and introduced range [PDF]
, 2015 . When plants are introduced into new regions, the absence of their co-evolved natural enemies can result in lower levels of attack. As a consequence of this reduction in enemy pressure, plant performance may increase and selection for resistance to ...

The Mechanism of Plant Resistance to Heavy Metal
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2019 Heavy metal pollution in the soil results in the accumulation of heavy metals in plants. While heavy metals are toxic to plants, plants also resist the toxicity of heavy metals through the mechanism of avoidance and tolerance.
