Inducible Plant Responses Linking Above- and Below-ground Herbivory: Ecological Significance and Underlying Mechanisms
Title: INDUCIBLE PLANT RESPONSES LINKING ABOVEAND BELOW-GROUND HERBIVORY: ECOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE AND UNDERLYING MECHANISMS Ian Kaplan, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Directed By: Professor Robert F. Denno, Department of Entomology Aboveand below-ground organisms can indirectly affect one another via several recently-described mechanisms, one such mechanism being herbivore-induced plant responses. ...
متن کاملAbove- and below-ground biomass relationships across 1534 forested communities.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Prior work has shown that above- and below-ground dry biomass across individual plants scale in a near isometric manner across phyletically and ecologically diverse species. Allometric theory predicts that a similar isometric scaling relationship should hold true across diverse forest-types, regardless of vegetational composition. METHODS To test this hypothesis, two compe...
متن کاملAbove-ground herbivory by red milkweed beetles facilitates above- and below-ground conspecific insects and reduces fruit production in common milkweed
1. Initial herbivory and induced plant responses can influence subsequent aboveand below-ground herbivore attack. When two life stages of the same herbivore damage different plant parts sequentially, there is strong potential for plants to respond with induced plant defence against the later attacker. Alternatively, the earlier attacker could manipulate the host plant to facilitate the later-fe...
متن کاملTesting the Growth Rate Hypothesis in Vascular Plants with Above- and Below-Ground Biomass
The growth rate hypothesis (GRH) proposes that higher growth rate (the rate of change in biomass per unit biomass, μ) is associated with higher P concentration and lower C:P and N:P ratios. However, the applicability of the GRH to vascular plants is not well-studied and few studies have been done on belowground biomass. Here we showed that, for aboveground, belowground and total biomass of thre...
متن کاملEmerging role of roots in plant responses to above ground insect herbivory.
Plants have evolved complex biochemical mechanisms to counter threats from insect herbivory. Recent research has revealed an important role of roots in plant responses to above ground herbivory (AGH). The involvement of roots is integral to plant resistance and tolerance mechanisms. Roots not only play an active role in plant defenses by acting as sites for biosynthesis of various toxins and bu...
