Genetic variation in herbivore resistance and tolerance: the role of plant life-history stage and type of damage.

Information of the patterns of genetic variation in plant resistance and tolerance against herbivores and genetic trade-offs between these two defence strategies is central for our understanding of the evolution of plant defence. We found genetic variation in resistance to two specialist herbivores...
