Allocating resources to reproduction and defense

The authors examine the sources of variation in allocation to sexual reproduction, clonal growth, and defense (primarily chemical defense of leaves). Their goal is twofold: to suggest general trends in allocation and their significance, both among and within species, in relation to environment; and...

Zusammenfassung:	The authors examine the sources of variation in allocation to sexual reproduction, clonal growth, and defense (primarily chemical defense of leaves). Their goal is twofold: to suggest general trends in allocation and their significance, both among and within species, in relation to environment; and to identify both conceptual and procedural difficulties involved in quantifying allocation.
