- W2888892414 abstract "Abstract Some plants can accumulate in their shoots metals that are toxic to most other organisms. This ability may serve as a defence against herbivores. Although both metal accumulation and the production of organic defences may be costly to the plant, the two mechanisms may interact on their effect on herbivores. However, this interplay between metal-based and ‘classical’ organic defences remains overlooked. To fill this gap, we studied the interactions between tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ), a plant that accumulates cadmium, and two spider-mites, Tetranychus urticae and T. evansi that respectively induce and suppress organic plant defences, measurable via the activity of trypsin inhibitors. We exposed plants to different concentrations of cadmium and measured their effect on mites and plants. The oviposition of both spider-mite species was higher on plants exposed to low concentrations of Cd than on control plants but decreased at concentrations above 0.5 mM. Therefore, herbivores with contrasting responses to organic defences responded similarly to metal accumulation by the plants. On the plant, despite clear evidence for Cd accumulation, we did not detect any effect of Cd on traits that reflect the general response of the plant, such as biomass, water content and carbon/nitrogen ratio. Still, we found an effect of Cd supply upon the quantity of soluble sugars and leaf reflectance changes that may reflect structural modifications in the cells. In turn, these changes in plant traits interfered with the performance of spider mites feeding on those plants. Additionally, we show that the induction and suppression of plant defences by spider mites was not affected by Cd supply to the plants. Furthermore, the effect of metal supply on spider-mite performance was not affected by previous infestation. Together, our results suggest no interaction between metal-based and organic plant defences, on our system. This may be useful for plants living in heterogeneous environments, as they may use one or the other defence mechanism, depending on their relative performance in each environment. This may be relevant to studies on the interactions between herbivores and plants, from physiology to ecology." @default.
