Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi affect plant tolerance and chemical defences to herbivory through different mechanisms (2016, background): “Storage in roots and rhizomes can also increase plant tolerance to herbivores (Strauss & Agrawal 1999; Stowe et al. 2000; Tiffin 2000).”
COMPETITION AND TIME OF DAMAGE AFFECT THE PATTERN OF SELECTION ACTING ON PLANT DEFENSE AGAINST HERBIVORES (2002, background): “It is reasonable to expect that the mechanisms and thus the expression of tolerance will depend on the timing and pattern of damage that plants experience (Whitham et al. 1991, Trumble et al. 1993, Tiffin 2000b).”
Phylogenetic patterns are not proxies of community assembly mechanisms (they are far better) (2015, background): “for dispersal), each related to a different set of traits (Tiffin 2000; NunezFarfan, Fornoni & Valverde 2007).”
Variation in tolerance to herbivory is mediated by differences in biomass allocation in aspen (2007, background): “…in examining how potential mechanisms of tolerance are influenced by genetic and environmental factors in a woody species, since the majority of tolerance studies to date have utilized herbaceous species and their conclusions may not pertain to trees (Haukioja & Koricheva 2000; Tiffin 2000).”
Foliar habit, tolerance to defoliation and their link to carbon and nitrogen storage (2014, background): “One of the main physiological mechanisms behind herbivory tolerance is the mobilization of stored C and nutrients (van der Meijden, Wijn & Verkaar 1988; Richards 1993; Tiffin 2000; Myers & Kitajima 2007; Palacio et al. 2008).”
Are grazing increaser species better tolerators than decreasers? An experimental assessment of defoliation tolerance in eight British grassland species (2005, background): “Plant responses to intense repetitive herbivory or clipping are seldom studied (Tiffin 2000; but see Mullahey et al . 1991; Zhang & Romo 1994, 1995; Jacobs & Sheley 1995; Thornton & Millard 1996; McPherson & Williams 1998).”
Tolerance to herbivory, and not resistance, may explain differential success of invasive, naturalized, and native North American temperate vines (2007, background): “There are numerous mechanisms that allow for plants to grow new tissue after loss to herbivores (Marquis, 1992; Strauss & Agrawal, 1999; Tiffin, 2000).”
COMPENSATION FOR HERBIVORY IN WILD SUNFLOWER: RESPONSE TO SIMULATED DAMAGE BY THE HEAD‐CLIPPING WEEVIL (2002, background): “…understanding the evolution of tolerance, and constraints on the simultaneous evolution of resistance and tolerance (e.g., Mauricio et al. 1997, Tiffin and Rausher 1999, Pilson 2000b) will require elucidation of characters conferring the ability to tolerate herbivory (Maurico 2000, Tiffin 2000).”
A meta-analysis of tradeoffs between plant tolerance and resistance to herbivores: combining the evidence from ecological and agricultural studies (2006, background): “…constrain the evolution of different defensive strategies in plants; rather, they support recently suggested models, which predict the coexistence of resistance and tolerance as defense strategies if their allocation costs are unequal (Tiffin 2000b) or non-linear (Restif and Koella 2004).”
