The role of host trait variation in parasite diversification: Testing model predictions for the goldenrod-insect community

107 Norman Smith Hall orono

Dr. Chandra Moffat Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Dr. Chandra Moffat’s research focuses on the evolutionary ecology of plant-herbivore interactions. She uses combination of field ecology, experiments, modelling and molecular biology to test hypotheses regarding the structuring of species interactions in both basic and applied systems. Chandra is particularly interested in the cause and consequences of […]
