A General Model for Host Plant Selection
✍ STUART A. WEST; J. PAUL CUNNINGHAM πŸ“‚ Article πŸ“… 2002 πŸ› Elsevier Science 🌐 English βš– 410 KB

We develop a general theoretical framework for exploring the host plant selection behaviour of herbivorous insects. This model can be used to address a number of questions, including the evolution of specialists, generalists, preference hierarchies, and learning. We use our model to: (i) demonstrate
