TLDR
Although a novel set of predictions based on current coevolutionary hypotheses are outlined, few consistencies in plant induction by specialists versus generalists, feeding guilds are predictive of differential plant responses.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of jasmonate and salicylate signal crosstalk.
TL;DR: Evidence for and against adaptive explanations for antagonistic crosstalk are examined, its phylogenetic origins are traced, and a hypothesis-testing framework for future research on the adaptive significance of SA-JA crosStalk is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant Defense against Insect Herbivores
TL;DR: Both plant defense and insect adaptation involve metabolic costs, so most plant-insect interactions reach a stand-off, where both host and herbivore survive although their development is suboptimal.

TL;DR: The first whole-genome sequence of a basal lepidopteran species, Plutella xylostella, is reported, which contains 18,071 protein-coding and 1,412 unique genes with an expansion of gene families associated with perception and the detoxification of plant defense compounds.

Plant Interactions with Multiple Insect Herbivores: From Community to Genes
Jeltje M. Stam,Anneke Kroes,Yehua Li,Rieta Gols,Joop J. A. van Loon,Erik H. Poelman,Marcel Dicke +6 more
TL;DR: This review addresses plant-mediated interactions with multiple species of the associated insect community and their effects on community dynamics, and links these to the mechanistic effects that multiple attacks have on plant phenotypes.

A link between host plant adaptation and pesticide resistance in the polyphagous spider mite Tetranychus urticae.

TL;DR: Key roles for both an expanded environmental response gene repertoire and transcriptional regulation in the life history of generalist herbivores are suggested, which support a model whereby selection for the ability to mount a broad response to the diverse defense chemistry of plants predisposes the evolution of pesticide resistance in generalists.

Plant apparency and chemical defense
TL;DR: A test of how far understanding of insect ecology has progressed will be the authors' ability to predict how patterns vary from one kind of community to another and how they will change when subjected to natural or human disturbance.

Insect-plant biology
TL;DR: The mechanisms underlying plant resistance to invading herbivores on the one side, and insect food specialization on the other, are the main subjects of this book.

Plant responses to insect herbivory: The emerging molecular analysis
André Kessler,Ian T. Baldwin +1 more
TL;DR: Large-scale transcriptional changes accompany insect-induced resistance, which is organized into specific temporal and spatial patterns and points to the existence of herbivore-specific trans-activating elements orchestrating the responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Myriad Plant Responses to Herbivores.
TL;DR: Differential expression of plant genes in response to closely related insect species suggest that some elicitors generated by phloem-feeding insects are species-specific and are dependent on the herbivore's developmental stage.
