The effects of slope orientation on plant growth, developmental instability and susceptibility to herbivores (2003, background): “The responses of herbivores to plant-growing conditions are variable and should be species-specific (e.g. Inbar et al., 2001).”
Stress magnitude matters: different intensities of pulsed water stress produce non‐monotonic resistance responses of host plants to insect herbivores (2009, background): “Water stress related changes in host-plant traits influence the behaviour and life-cycle parameters of insect herbivores ( Inbar et al. , 2001; Lower & Orians, 2003; Scheirs & De Bruyn, 2005; Trotter et al. , 2008 ).”
Willow genotype, but not drought treatment, affects foliar phenolic concentrations and leaf‐beetle resistance (2004, background): “However, other studies have shown that more vigorously growing plants have a reduced resistance to insects (Price, 1991, 1997; Inbar et al., 2001; Glynn et al., 2003), formalized as the Plant Vigor Hypothesis (PVH) (Price, 1991).”
