Growth and parasite defence in plants; the balance between resource sequestration and retention : In lieu of a guest editorial.

Plant Biol. 4, 133-136 (2002)
Open Access Green as soon as Postprint is submitted to ZB.
A hypothesis on regulation of the balance between growth and parasite defence in plants is formulated, namely that plants regulate their resource allocation in a way where stress tolerance and resistance inherently lead to constraints on growth and competitiveness. Seven reviews and the subsequent article in this issue of Plant Biology contributing to this problem are briefly introduced in context.
