Rezension

From the reviews:



"‘Induced Plant Resistance to Herbivory’ edited by Andreas Schaller contains three major sections comprising a total of 21 chapters. … A broader and more complete overview of induced plant defences against herbivores would have made the book more interesting for a broader reader-ship. … every chapter gives a detailed insight into a fascinating topic and is certainly worth to read for those who are working in the area and are in search for a rapid update on their own or a closely related research topic." (Martin Heil, Basic and Applied Ecology, Vol. 10, 2009)
