Experiments with <i>Lymantria dispar</i> larvae do not support the idea of physiological adjustment to host individuals by insect herbivores
All organisms have to cope with spatial and temporal heterogeneity of the environment. At short temporal and small spatial scales, organisms may respond by behavioural or physiological mechanisms. To test for physiological adjustments to variation in host quality among tree individuals within a host...
