Plant invaders and their novel natural enemies: who is naïve?

Abstract: Introduced exotic species encounter a wide range of non-coevolved enemies and competitors in their new range. Evolutionary novelty is a key aspect of these interactions, but who benefits from novelty: the exotic species or their new antagonists? Paradoxically, the novelty argument has been used to explain both the release from and the suppression by natural enemies. We argue that this paradox can be solved by considering underlying interaction mechanisms. Using plant defenses as a model, we argue that mismatch… Show more

“…Because plants vary tremendously in their defensive arsenal among species [1] and populations [2], herbivores may encounter geographically heterogeneous mosaics of plant defences and their offence traits are predicted to exhibit local adaptation [3][4][5][6]. Despite this widespread notion, relatively little data exist on local adaptation of insects to specific defence traits [7,8].…”

“…For example, compatibility between legumes and rhizobial symbionts can result from polymorphism at a single locus (Lie 1978;Spoerke et al 1996;Parker 1999). Trait dissimilarity such as in the elicitor-receptor systems that underlie disease resistance between plants and pathogenic microbes can suppress invasions as this allows the enemies to go undetected by the host plants (Jones and Dangl 2006;Verhoeven et al 2009).…”

“…Both strong suppression by, or release from aboveground and belowground herbivores has been argued a possible outcome of novel plant-herbivore interactions, as both plant and herbivore might be maladapted to their new host or enemy (Verhoeven et al 2009). The strong bottom-up control of…”

“…While such range-expanders have become increasingly common (Tamis et al 2005), little is known about their influence on native above-and belowground plant-associated biota in their novel habitat (Van Nuland, Bailey & Schweitzer 2017). The limited co-evolutionary history may result in naïve responses of either plants or associated biota (Verhoeven et al 2009;Pearse et al 2013), which makes outcomes of such novel interactions difficult to predict.…”
