Oviposition by <i>Spodoptera exigua</i> on <i>Solanum dulcamara</i> Alters the Plant’s Response to Herbivory and Impairs Larval Performance

Plant resistance traits against insect herbivores are extremely plastic. Plants respond not only to the herbivory itself, but also to oviposition by herbivorous insects. How prior oviposition affects plant responses to larval herbivory is largely unknown. Combining bioassays and defense protein acti...
