  • More about Mathematical Models of Plant-Herbivore Interactions


Mathematical Models of Plant-Herbivore Interactions is a book that discusses the use of mathematical modeling to investigate the effects of plant defenses on plant-herbivore dynamics, and describes a toxin-determined functional response model (TDFRM) that helps explain field observations of these interactions. It is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in mathematical biology and ecology.

Format: Paperback / softback

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


Mathematical Models of Plant-Herbivore Interactions delve into the realm of mathematical models, offering a comprehensive exploration of ecological principles. Specifically, it focuses on the intricate dynamics of herbivory, encompassing factors such as plant defense mechanisms, the presence of herbivore natural enemies, and adaptive herbivory. By unraveling these complex interactions, the book sheds light on the profound effects on plant community dynamics.

Through extensive research, this comprehensive text presents a toxin-determined functional response model (TDFRM), a groundbreaking framework that elucidates field observations of plant-herbivore interactions. This model underscores the importance of toxins in shaping the functional responses of herbivores, ultimately influencing their survival and population dynamics.

Designed with graduate students and researchers in mind, Mathematical Models of Plant-Herbivore Interactions serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to delve into the interdisciplinary field of mathematical biology and ecology. It provides a solid foundation for understanding the intricate mechanisms governing plant-herbivore interactions and their ecological implications, paving the way for future research and conservation efforts.
