Plants interact with many visitors who consume a variety of plant tissues. While the
consequences of herbivory to leaves and shoots are well known, the implications of florivory, the …

Climate change and habitat destruction have been linked to global declines in vertebrate
biodiversity, including mammals, amphibians, birds, and fishes. However, invertebrates make …

Airborne communication between individuals, called “eavesdropping” in this paper, can cause
plants to become more resistant to herbivores when a neighbor has been experimentally …

The optimal defence theory (ODT) of chemical defence provides a predictive framework for
the distribution of anti‐herbivore defences in plants. One of its predictions is that chemical …

Numerous disease processes cause inner ear dysfunction and represent an opportunity for
therapeutic intervention. Hearing loss is the common endpoint of many inner ear disorders …

This review considers the integration of vestibular and other signals by the central nervous
system pathways that participate in balance control and blood pressure regulation, with an …

The opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans is capable of adhering to the oral
mucosa despite forces created by salivary flow. Although many fungal adhesion proteins have …

Vomiting and nausea can be elicited by a variety of stimuli, although there is considerable
evidence that the same brainstem areas mediate these responses despite the triggering …

Objective Malignant otitis externa (MOE) is an invasive infection of the temporal bone that is
classically caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Increasingly, however, nonpseudomonal …

Bilateral loss of vestibular inputs affects far fewer patients than unilateral inner ear damage,
and thus has been understudied. In both animal subjects and human patients, bilateral …
