DROUGHT LIMITS INDUCED TWINING BY LEAF DAMAGE IN THE CLIMBING PLANT IPOMOEA PURPUREA (L.) ROTH (CONVOLVULACEAE)
The environment may limit the expression of induced responses to herbivory, such as increased chemical or physical defenses. Recent studies in climbing plants have shown that leaf damage induces twining. This response may confer protection against ground herbivores in the field. We addressed the eff...
