    Habitat complexity reduces parasitoid foraging efficiency, but does not prevent orientation towards learned host plant odours

    It is well known that many parasitic wasps use herbivore-induced plant odours (HIPVs) to locate their inconspicuous host insects, and are often able to distinguish between slight differences in plant odour com...

    Abiotic Induction Affects the Costs and Benefits of Inducible Herbivore Defenses in Datura wrightii

    We evaluated the costs and benefits of continuous high-level expression of defenses relative to naturally-induced defenses in field-grown Datura wrightii in the presence and absence of herbivores. We induced D. w...
