title: Coping with multiple enemies: an integration of molecular and ecological perspectives.
abstract: How plants respond to attack by the range of herbivores and pathogens that confront them in the field is the subject of considerable research by both molecular biologists and ecologists. However, in spite of the shared focus of these two bodies of research, there has been little integration between them. We consider the scope for such integration, and how greater dialogue between molecular biologists and ecologists could advance understanding of plant responses to multiple enemies.
