Abstract

A transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana genotype, which produce a significant amount of dhurrin in the leaves and consequently is resistant to the flea beetle Phyllotreta nemorum, fitted a hyperbolic seed production—density regression significantly different from the isogenic non-modified wildtype. The cumulative seed production per area of the transgenic genotype was significantly lower at the highest density. Furthermore, the transgenic genotype showed significant over-dominance and was predicted to show chaotic population dynamics within a biological realistic parameter space.
