In addition to various bottom‐up effects, the synchronization of herbivores with their host
plant phenology determines quality and quantity of food resources and affects the …

Synchronization between the appearance of herbivorous insects and their host-plant
phenology is a critical event, especially for short-lived insects such as gall midges. We …

Abstract Leaf-galling Eriophyidae (Acarina) may promote simple or complex alterations in
the organs of their host plants, such as an increase in indumentum density or the …

The gall-induction rates in a population of the superhost Copaifera langsdorffii, located in a
rocky field vegetation in Brazil, should follow sprouting events and water availability. The …

Intralaminar galls of Meunieriella result from ground tissue proliferation in leaves of
Avicennia schaueriana, a typical halophytic mangrove. We tested if the preferred sites of gall …

The aphid Schlechtendalia chinensis (Bell) induces galls on its primary host, Rhus chinensis
Mill. We studied temporal changes in gall and aphid clonal population size throughout the …

In this study, the mortality factors acting upon the galling psyllid Neopelma baccharidis
Burckhardt (Homoptera) caused by its host plant, Baccharis dracunculifolia De Candole …

The fluid-feeding aphid Schlechtendalia chinensis (Bell) induces horned galls on its primary
host, the Chinese Sumac (Rhus chinensis Mill). Horned galls are harvested for their high …

The effects of long term browsing on growth and morphology of P. atlantica trees and P.
palaestina shrubs, and on the colonization of these hosts by their respective gall-inducing …

Gall-site selection by the aphid Kaltenbachiella japonica was evaluated in relation to leaf
position in a shoot, and gall positions within a leaf. First-instar fundatrices induce closed …
