When they are consumed on by herbivores, plants have a likely reduction in on fitness. Therefore there are several forms of plant defense antiherbivory. The principal forms are: the production of chemical and physical defenses, escape in time and space, tolerance to herbivory and indirect defense (which leads to attracting natural enemies to the plant). The escape in time, or phenological defense, comprises the features related to the rate of growth of parts to be consumed by herbivores. Studies of cyclical biological phenomena in a plant are called phenology. Similarly, the herbivores have developed features that allow for a better usage of host plants, the construction of leaf shelters is one of the most common forms of manipulatio...
