摘要
Examined the interaction between the herb Brassica rapa and Pieris rapae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) in relation to variation in trichome production. The aim was to determine whether there is a trade-off between allocation to defense (trichomes) and allocation to life-hisotry functions like the number of days to first flower and total flower production. -from Authors
