Variation in Plant Defense Suppresses Herbivore Performance (Current Biology)
 


Pearse et al. find that defense variability reduces the performance of an herbivore. Their study suggests that constraints to physiological tracking explain the impact of variable defenses better than nonlinear averaging. These results hint at why plant communities with diverse defenses suffer less herbivore damage than agricultural monocultures.
