The ecology and evolution of induced responses to herbivory and how plants perceive risk (2019, methodology): “Can we use elicitors, such as jasmonates (cues that coordinate defences against herbivores by many plants; Howe & Jander, 2008), to manipulate levels of resistance or to prime plants when we anticipate increased risk? Can crop breeding programs increase the emission and/or responsiveness of agricult”
Shifts in plant functional strategies over the course of wheat domestication (2018, background): “Today, it is crucial to understand how cultivated plants are adapted to novel environments (Denison, 2012; Guarda, Padovan, & Delogu, 2004) through the analysis of phenotypic traits not directly targeted by human selection (Denison, Kiers, & West, 2003; Martin & Isaac, 2015; Milla, MorenteLopez,…”
Toward a new generation of agricultural system data, models, and knowledge products: State of agricultural systems science (2017, background): “Although phenotypic models have been explored in agriculture (e.g., Denisen, 2012), the vast majority of evolutionary models have been genetic.”
