Plant–herbivore interactions have evolved in response to coevolutionary dynamics, along with selection driven by abiotic conditions. We examine how abiotic factors influence trait …
Climate change ecology has focused on climate effects on trophic interactions through the lenses of temperature effects on organismal physiology and phenological asynchronies …
Background Plants condition the soil in which they grow, thereby altering the performance of subsequent plants growing in this soil. This phenomenon, known as plant-soil feedback …
Highlights•Daily temperature variation (DTV) and extreme temperatures (EXT) shape performance.•Variable effects of DTV and EXT can be predicted from thermal performance …
The response of body size to increasing temperature constitutes a universal response to climate change that could strongly affect terrestrial ectotherms, but the magnitude and …
Temperature imposes a constraint on the rates and outcomes of ecological processes that determine community‐and ecosystem‐level patterns. The application of metabolic scaling …

Temperature has a profound impact on animal physiology. In this study, we examined the effect of ambient temperature on the energy stores of the model organism Drosophila …
Fossilized leaves provide the longest running record of hyperdiverse plant–insect herbivore associations. Reconstructions of these relationships over deep time indicate strong links …
Plant-herbivore interactions shape community dynamics across marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats. From amphipods to elephants and from algae to trees, plant-herbivore …
