The effect of drought‐induced leaf traits on Ficus leaf palatability is species specific
Abstract Drought has a significant impact on plant–insect interactions by altering plant survival, growth, leaf quality, and defense traits. Tropical plants are particularly vulnerable to water depression because of shallow root depth. In the context of climate change, drought events are expected to...
