A framework for predicting intraspecific variation in plant defense

PG Hahn, JL Maron - Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2016 - cell.com
One of the most well-supported theories regarding the evolution of plant defenses is the
resource availability hypothesis (RAH). RAH posits that species from high-resource …

Carbon source–sink limitations differ between two species with contrasting growth strategies

AC Burnett, A Rogers, M Rees… - Plant, Cell & …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Understanding how carbon source and sink strengths limit plant growth is a critical
knowledge gap that hinders efforts to maximize crop yield. We investigated how differences …

Carbon allocation during defoliation: testing a defense-growth trade-off in balsam fir

A Deslauriers, L Caron, S Rossi - Frontiers in plant science, 2015 - frontiersin.org
During repetitive defoliation events, carbon can become limiting for trees. To maintain
growth and survival, the resources have to be shared more efficiently, which could result in a …
