Sex-mediated herbivory by galling insects on Baccharis concinna (Asteraceae) Rev. Bras. entomol.
Carneiro,Marco Antonio A.; Fernandes,Geraldo Wilson; Souza,Og F. F. de; Souza,Wyller Vicente M..
The interaction patterns between the dioecious shrub Baccharis concinna Barroso (Asteraceae) and its speciose galling insect community were studied in southeastern Brazil. Two hypotheses were tested in this study: "the differential reproduction and growth hypothesis" that predicts that male plants present fewer reproductive structures and are larger than female plants; and the 'sex-biased herbivory hypothesis' that predicts that male plants support a larger abundance of insect galls than female plants. Plants did not show sexual dimorphism in growth (= mean leaf number). However, male plants had longer shoots and a lower average number of inflorescences than female plants. These results corroborate the hypothesis that male plants grow more and reproduce...
