COPPER CONTAMINATION INFLUENCES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SEAWEED INDUCIBLE DEFENSES

COPPER CONTAMINATION INFLUENCES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SEAWEED INDUCIBLE DEFENSES. Research Permit and Reporting System

Here, we investigated the effect of copper contamination on the effectiveness of inducible resistance in the brown seaweed, Silvetia compressa, to a snail herbivore, Tegula funebralis. We examined the effectiveness of inducible resistance for organisms exposed to copper at two time points, either during induction or after herbivores had already induced seaweed.
