Abstract
⺠Effects of glucosinolates on herbivores and parasitoids. ⺠Negative correlation of glucosinolates with performance of a generalist herbivore. ⺠Similar result with a specialist herbivore, despite detoxification mechanism. ⺠Positive correlation with parasitoid performance, perhaps due to host immune system. ⺠Our study documents a dual defensive role of glucosinolates.
