▪ Abstract Tremendous strides have been made regarding our understanding of how host
plant chemistry influences the interactions between herbivores and their natural enemies …

The potential role of ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B)‐induced secondary plant metabolites as mediators
of multiple trophic responses in terrestrial ecosystems is considered through review of the …

Herbivore attack is widely known to reduce food quality and to increase chemical defenses
and other traits responsible for herbivore resistance. Inducible defenses are commonly …

The Structurally similar diterpenoid alcohols pachydictyol—A and dictyol—E are produced
by the brown seaweed Dictyota dichotoma. This seaweed and several related species that …

Phratora vitellinae and Galerucella lineola are two leaf beetles that feed on willows (Salix) in
central Sweden. When disturbed, larvae of P. vitellinae exude droplets of a defensive …

After herbivore attack, plants launch a suite of direct and indirect defense responses that
must be coordinated if plants are to realize a fitness benefit from these responses. Here we …

Five secondary metabolites from tropical marine algae and one related compound from an
herbivorous sea—hare (Aplysidae) were coated, at approximately natural concentrations …

Nicotine, an inducible defense in a number of Nicotiana species, exemplifies adaptive
phenotypic plasticity. The mechanisms responsible for its production are reviewed, and the …

We documented an indirect interaction between beavers (Castor canadensis) and leaf
beetles (Chrysomela confluens), mediated by changing plant chemistry of their cottonwood …

Summary The contribution of Miriam Rothschild to the “monarch cardenolide story” is
reviewed in the light of the 1914 challenge by the evolutionary biologist, EB Poulton for …
