Abstract
Symbiotic bacteria in herbivorous insects can have strong beneficial impacts on their host's survival, including conferring resistance to natural enemies such as parasitoid wasps or pathogens, while also imposing energetic costs on the host, resulting in cost-benefit trade-offs. Whether these trade-offs favour the hosting of symbionts depends on the growth environment of the herbivore. Long-term experimental grassland studies have shown that...
