Chemically-mediated interactions in salt marshes: mechanisms that plant communities use to deter closely associated herbivores and pathogens
Herbivores and pathogens pose a consistent threat to plant productivity. In response, plants invest in structural and/or chemical defenses that minimize damage caused by these biotic stressors. In salt marshes along the Atlantic coast of the United States, a facultative mutualism between snails (L...
