内容説明

Recent research indicates that plants may be defended by mechanisms activated only after a plant has been challenged by a herbivore. This volume examines these inducible defences and attempts to provide a framework for future advances in the field. The book also serves as a summary and compilation of major studies to date on important areas of plant and insect ecology. While treating both vertebrates and invertebrates, the book covers mechanisms and models of long and short-term induction. The impact of inducible phytochemicals on herbivores is extensively discussed as are pesticidal activity of inducible phytochemicals.
