Prioritizing plant defence over growth through WRKY regulation facilitates infestation by non-target herbivores

Plants generally respond to herbivore attack by increasing resistance and decreasing growth. This prioritization is achieved through the regulation of phytohormonal signaling networks. However, it remains unknown how this prioritization affects resistance against non-target herbivores. In this study...
