Cover ; Half Title ; Aims and scope ; Published Titles ; Title ; Copy rights ; Dedication ; Contents; Foreword ; Preface ; List of Figures ; List of Tables ; Part I- Basic Theory and SimpleModels ; Chapter 1. Introduction ; 1.1 Types of plant-herbivore interactions ; e.g., plant and herbivore diversity, types of herbivore feeding on plants.

"Mathematical Models of Plant-Herbivore Interactions addresses mathematical models in the study of practical questions in ecology, particularly factors that affect herbivory, including plant defense, herbivore natural enemies, and adaptive herbivory, as well as the effects of these on plant community dynamics. The result of extensive research on the use of mathematical modeling to investigate the effects of plant defenses on plant-herbivore dynamics, this book describes a toxin-determined functional response model (TDFRM) that helps explains field observations of these interactions. This book is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in mathematical biology and ecology."--Provided by publisher.
