Herbivore‐induced indirect interaction webs on terrestrial plants: the importance of non‐trophic, indirect, and facilitative interactions (2008, background): “The colonization rate of the aphid Aphis farinose Gmelin (Homoptera: Aphididae), a common sap-feeder, was four times greater on galled shoots than on ungalled shoots (Nakamura et al., 2003).”
Indirect Interaction Webs: Herbivore-Induced Effects Through Trait Change in Plants (2005, background): “After leafrolling caterpillars eclosed and left their leaf shelters, most leaf shelters were colonized by other insects, in particular, the aphid Chaitophorus saliniger, which is highly specialized for utilizing leafrolls (Nakamura & Ohgushi 2003).”
Complex interactions in the microbial world: underexplored key links between viruses, bacteria and protozoan grazers in aquatic environments (2008, background): “…to herbivory (e.g. Faeth 1986, Karban & Myers 1989), but can also be beneficial as a result of compensatory re-growth of plant tissue (e.g. Nakamura et al. 2003), or of induced resistance that is effective against 1 consumer species, but actually benefits other consumers (Martinsen et al.…”
