Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrient stress: an explanation for plant anti-herbivore responses to defoliation
TL;DR: It is put forward that the long-lasting inducible responses of trees to herbivores, particularly lepidopteran defoliators, may not be active defensive responses, but a by-product of mechanisms which rearrange the plant carbon/nutrient balance in response to nutrient stress caused by defoliation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induced long-term resistance of birch foliage against defoliators: defensive or incidental?
Erkki Haukioja,Seppo Neuvonen +1 more
TL;DR: Fertilization of the soil around defoliated trees did not eliminate the change in foliage quality caused by mechanical damage, contrary to the prediction of the nutrient—stress hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of a Microbial Community in Soil after Prolonged Addition of Low Levels of Simulated Acid Rain
TL;DR: The changed bacterial community was adapted to the more acidic environment in the acid-treated plots, even though bacterial growth rates decreased with pH, which indicates that bacteria were more affected than fungi by the acidification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex responses of global insect pests to climate warming
Philipp Lehmann,Philipp Lehmann,Philipp Lehmann,Tea Ammunet,Madeleine Barton,Andrea Battisti,Sanford D. Eigenbrode,Jane Uhd Jepsen,Gregor Kalinkat,Seppo Neuvonen,Pekka Niemelä,John S. Terblanche,Bjørn Økland,Christer Björkman +13 more
TL;DR: Although it is well known that insects are sensitive to temperature, how they will be affected by ongoing global warming remains uncertain because these responses are multifaceted and ecologically... as discussed by the authors.
Book ChapterDOI
The Autumnal Moth in Fennoscandia
TL;DR: This chapter analyzes the population dynamics of Epirrita, but many of the conclusions may apply to other defoliators, such as Operophtera brumata (Linnaeus, O. fagata (Scharfenberg), O. bruceata (Hu1st), and Erannis defoliaria (Clerck), which often exhibit synchronous fluctuations in the same or adjacent areas.
