Little is known about the potential for coexistence between native and non-native plants after
large-scale biological invasions. Using the example of native perennial bunchgrasses and …

Plant defensive traits drive patterns of herbivory and herbivore diversity among plant
species. Over the past 30 years, several prominent hypotheses have predicted the …

Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) leaf trichomes are single-cell structures with a well-
