Phylogenetics of Insect/Plant Interactions
This website was created as a supplement to our recent review chapter:
Winkler, I.S., and C. Mitter.
2008. The phylogenetic dimension of insect-plant interactions: a review
of recent evidence. Pp. 240-263 in: Tilmon, K.J. (ed.), Specialization,
Speciation, and Radiation: The Evolutionary Biology of Herbivorous
Insects. University of California Press, Berkeley.
A pdf of the chapter is available here.
In preparing this literature review, we created a database of
phylogenetic studies of phytophagous insects, which we also offer here
as a community resource, in the hopes that it will encourage further systhesis.
