Induced Defenses in Ponderosa Pine Against Defoliating Insectsin trees that protect them from insect attack. It has also been observed that when insect outbreaks occur, they usually do not persist for long periods. Again the question is raised, “What factors in trees allow for defense against insect herbivores?”.Of the many possible mechanisms that could be re

There is reason to believe that this variation can significantly affect herbivore populations (Denno and McClure 1983). For example, Mattson .. (1982) reasoned
