abstract = {Plants experiencing herbivory suffer indirect costs beyond
direct loss of leaf area, but differentially so based on the
herbivore involved. We used a combination of chlorophyll
fluorescence imaging and gas exchange techniques to quantify
photosynthetic performance, the efficiency of
photochemistry, and heat dissipation to examine immediate
and longer-term physiological responses in the desert
perennial Datura wrightii to herbivory by tobacco hornworm,
Manduca sexta. Herbivory by colony-reared larvae yielded no
significant reduction in carbon assimilation, whereas
herbivory by wild larvae induced a fast and spreading
down-regulation of photosynthetic efficiency, resulting in
significant losses in carbon assimilation in eaten and
uneaten leaves. We found both an $89 \%$ reduction in net
photosynthetic rates in herbivore-damaged leaves and a
whole-plant response $(79 \%$ decrease in undamaged leaves
from adjacent branches). Consequently, herbivory costs are
higher than previously estimated in this well-studied
plant-insect interaction. We used chlorophyll fluorescence
imaging to elucidate the mechanisms of this down-regulation.
Quantum yield decreased up to $70 \%$ in a small concentric
band surrounding the feeding area within minutes of the
onset of herbivory. Non-photochemical energy dissipation by
the plant to avoid permanent damage was elevated near the
wound, and increased systematically in distant areas of the
leaf away from the wound over subsequent hours. Together,
the results underscore not only potential differences
between colony-reared and wild-caught herbivores in
experimental studies of herbivory but also the benefits of
quantifying physiological responses of plants in unattacked
leaves.},
