Evolution of resistance and tolerance to herbivores: testing the trade-off hypothesis
Background. To cope with their natural enemies, plants rely on resistance and tolerance as defensive strategies. Evolution of these strategies among natural population can be constrained by the absence of genetic variation or because of the antagonistic genetic correlation (trade-off) between them. Also, since plant defenses are integrated by several traits, it has been suggested that trade-off...
متن کاملThe Evolution of Resistance and Tolerance to Herbivores
Tolerance and resistance are two different plant defense strategies against herbivores.

The trade-off hypothesis states that virulence is an unavoidable consequence of parasite transmission; however, since the 1990s, this hypothesis has been increasi...
