Every plant is a member of a complex insect community that consists of tens to hundreds of species that belong to different trophic levels. The dynamics of this community are critically influenced by the plant, which mediates interactions between community members that can occur on the plant simultaneously or at different times. Herbivory results in changes in the plant's morphological or chemical phenotype that affect interactions with subsequently arriving herbivores. Changes in the plant's phenotype are mediated by molecular processes such as phytohormonal signaling networks and transcriptomic rearrangements that are initiated by oral secretions of the herbivore. Processes at different levels of biological complexity occur at timescales ranging from minutes to years. In this review, we address plant-mediated interactions with multiple species of the associated insect community and their effects on community dynamics, and link these to the mechanistic effects that multiple attacks have on plant phenotypes.
每一种植物都是一个复杂昆虫群落的成员，这个群落由数十种到数百种属于不同营养级的物种组成。群落的动态受到植物的严重影响，植物介导了群落成员之间的相互作用，这些相互作用可以在植物上同时发生，也可以在不同时间发生。食草动物的取食会导致植物形态或化学表型的变化，从而影响随后到达的食草动物的相互作用。植物表型的变化是由分子过程介导的，如植物激素信号网络和转录组重排，这些过程是由食草动物的口腔分泌物引发的。不同层次的生物复杂性的过程发生在从几分钟到几年的时间尺度上。在这篇综述中，我们讨论了植物与相关昆虫群落中多种物种的介导相互作用及其对群落动态的影响，并将这些相互作用与多种攻击对植物表型的机制影响联系起来。
