摘要：

Genetic techniques have yielded new insights into plant-herbivore coevolution. Quantitative genetic tests of herbivory theory reveal that in some cases insect herbivores impose selection on resistance traits. Also, some resistance traits are costly while others appear not to be, and genetic models can explain these results. Genetic variation in plant resistance influences insect community structure by modifying interactions of herbivores with competitors and natural enemies. Therefore, models of multispecies coevolution are more realistic than pairwise coevolutionary models. Ecological genetics will facilitate further theoretical and empirical exploration of multispecies coevolution of plants and herbivores. © 1990.
