Effects of Rising Temperature on the Growth, Stoichiometry, and Palatability of Aquatic Plants

Effects of Rising Temperature on the Growth, Stoichiometry, and Palatability of Aquatic Plants

Global warming is expected to strengthen herbivore-plant interactions leading to enhanced top-down control of plants. However, latitudinal gradients in plant quality as food for herbivores suggest lower palatability at higher temperatures, but the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. If plant pa...
