Greater phylogenetic distance from native oaks predicts escape from insect leaf herbivores by non‐native oak saplings

[Premise] Non‐native plant species have been hypothesized to experience lower herbivory in novel environments as a function of their phylogenetic distance from native plant species. Although recent work has found support for this prediction, the plant traits responsible for such patterns have been l...

Sumario:[Premise] Non‐native plant species have been hypothesized to experience lower herbivory in novel environments as a function of their phylogenetic distance from native plant species. Although recent work has found support for this prediction, the plant traits responsible for such patterns have been largely overlooked.
