Figure 5From: Transcriptome analysis of intraspecific competition in Arabidopsis thalianareveals organ-specific signatures related to nutrient acquisition and general stress response pathwaysEffect of Arabidopsis intraspecific competition on insect larval performance. Freshly hatched larvae of the generalist Spodoptera littoralis were placed on plants growing alone or at a density of 20 plants per pot. Larval weight was measured after eight days of feeding. Values are the mean (±SE) of three independent biological replicates.Back to article page
