Both Castilleja miniata in subalpine Colorado and C. indivisa in central Texas have reduced herbivory when obtaining alkaloids from the hosts Lupinus argenteus

Alkaloid Uptake Increases Fitness in a Hemiparasitic Plant via Reduced Herbivory and Increased Pollination.

It has been historically difficult to manipulate secondary compounds in living plants to assess how these compounds influence plant-herbivore and plant-pollinator interactions. Using a hemiparasitic plant that takes up secondary compounds from host plants, I experimentally manipulated secondary
