Simple model of insect and plant interaction. Herbivorous insects use two adaptive strategies to assist them feed safely on plants, self-regulation (green box) and external assistance (blue box). Plants formated different strategies to cope with ingesting from insect depending on the intensity. Among them, strategies 2 and 3, phenotypic plasticity plays a role in defense
