The resource availability hypothesis revisited: a meta‐analysis
MJ Endara, PD Coley - Functional Ecology, 2011 - Wiley Online Library

Into a dilemma of plants: the antagonism between chemical defenses and growth
I Sestari, ML Campos - Plant Molecular Biology, 2022 - Springer
Key message Chemical defenses are imperative for plant survival, but their production is
often associated with growth restrictions. Here we review the most recent theories to explain …

Seasonal changes in birch leaf chemistry: are there trade-offs between leaf growth and accumulation of phenolics?
Several plant-herbivore hypotheses are based on the assumption that plants cannot
simultaneously allocate resources to growth and defence. We studied seasonal patterns in …
