...... and plant resistance in four different herbivore interactions. In a single population of A. lyrata, we found heritable variation for trichome density as well as GS amount and carbon side-chain elongation ratios associated with activity in methylthioalkylmalate synthase (MAM). Unexpectedly, heritabilities for indole GS in A. lyrata were high and less affected by differences in plant age and environment than aliphatic GS. We found significant heritability in plant resistance to the specialist Plutella ......
