    • Induction of glandular and non-glandular trichomes by damage in leaves of Madia sativa under contrasting ... 
      Gonzáles, Wilfredo L.; Negritto, María A.; Suárez, Lorena H.; Gianoli, Ernesto (GAUTHIER-VILLARS/EDITIONS ELSEVIER, 2008-02)
      Plant traits may play multiple functional roles simultaneously. Leaf trichomes have been related to resistance against herbivores as well as to enhanced water economy in the plant. In a greenhouse study, we evaluated the ...
    • Outcrossing increases infection success in the 
      Gonzáles, Wilfredo L.; Suárez, Lorena H.; Medel Contreras, Rodrigo (SPRINGER, 2007-03)
      Most studies on the fitness advantage of outbreeding in host–parasite systems have been assessed from the host rather than the parasite perspective. Here, we performed experimental pollination treatments to evaluate the ...
    • Water availability limits tolerance of apical damage in the Chilean tarweed Madia sativa 
      Gonzáles, Wilfredo L.; Suárez, Lorena H.; Molina Montenegro, Marco A.; Gianoli, Ernesto (GAUTHIER-VILLARS/EDITIONS ELSEVIER, 2008-08)
      Plant tolerance is the ability to reduce the negative impact of herbivory on plant fitness. Numerous studies have shown that plant tolerance is affected by nutrient availability, but the effect of soil moisture has received ...
