Costs of constitutive and herbivore‐induced chemical defences in pine trees emerge only under low nutrient availability (2011, background): “Like constitutive defences, induced defences can be also modulated by the environment and are assumed to be costly to produce (e.g. Van Dam & Baldwin 1998; Agrawal, Strauss & Stout 1999; Cipollini & Heil 2010).”
Whitefly infestation of pepper plants elicits defence responses against bacterial pathogens in leaves and roots and changes the below‐ground microflora (2011, background): “First, resistance expression against herbivores or pathogens may use limited resources and can then cause significant allocation costs (Baldwin 1998; Agrawal 2000; Heil et al. 2000; Heil & Baldwin 2002; Cipollini & Heil 2010).”
