#NativeHerbivory may be detrimental to plant fitness and thus can contribute a biotic resistance to #ExoticPlantInvasion. Rui-Fang Wang et al. explored the difference of #Defences and #Compensation between #EupatoriumAdenophorum and its native congeneric plant #EupatoriumHeterophyllum to #MechanicalWounding and #InsectHerbivory.
