Book Description:
This book explores insect-induced galls in plants, which are specialized growth responses to insect feeding or egg-laying activities. It covers the physiological and signal-activated changes in plants that lead to the formation of these galls, which provide both nourishment and shelter for the inducing insect. The book also examines the diverse nature of gall-inducing insects across different taxonomic groups and the effects these galls have on plant health. In some cases, the damage caused by these insects can severely affect plant performance, productivity, and even lead to plant death. The volume reassesses the status of gall-inducing arthropods on forest trees, looking at their natural enemies, spread to other plant species, and the interactions between gall-inducing insect species and trees.
