Ecological genomics of plant-insect interactions: from gene to community.
A major challenge for current biology is to integrate research approaches that address different levels of biological organization, from subcellular mechanisms to functions in ecological communities. The study of plant-insect interactions provides interesting options for this. Ample information at the subcellular and the individual level is available on the one hand, while important insight in ...

متن کاملInsect-plant interactions: new pathways to a better comprehension of ecological communities in Neotropical savannas.
The causal mechanisms shaping and structuring ecological communities are among the most important themes in ecology. The study of insect-plant interactions in trophic nets is pointed out as basic to improve our knowledge on this issue. The cerrado tropical savanna, although extremely diverse, distributed in more than 20% of the Brazilian territory and filled up with rich examples of multitrophi...
متن کاملCommunity structure and ecological specialization in plant–ant interactions
Environmental effects on species interactions can be studied by comparative analyses of network structure. For example, comparison of interaction networks among study sites can provide clues to geographic variation of host breadth. Obligate plant–ant interactions are ideal systems to explore these phenomena because they are long term and can be accurately sampled in the field. We tested two hyp...
متن کاملPlant-insect interactions: molecular approaches to insect resistance.
Recent advances in our understanding of induced responses in plants and their regulation, brought about by a revolution in molecular biology, have re-focused attention on the potential exploitation of endogenous resistance mechanisms for crop protection. The future goal of crop biotechnology is thus to engineer a durable, multimechanistic resistance to insect pests through an understanding of t...
