Plants have to constantly cope with a suite of biotic and abiotic stress factors.
Plants performance depends on the ability to quickly perceive changes in the environment and to express an adaptive response.
Abiotic stresses, includes: drought, soil flooding, high or low temperatures and biotic stress includes: insect herbivory and pathogen attacks.
Molecular studies have revealed that plant responses comprise a complex network of signaling pathways including Ca2+ signaling. 3 Plant stress and Insect interactions Seybold et al. 2014<br>

Hypotheses to predict how insect herbivores perform on stressed host plants?
Basically there are three hypotheses which predict how insect herbivores perform on stressed host plants?
1 The plant stress hypothesis (PSH).
2 The plant vigour hypothesis (PVH).
3 Insect Performance Hypothesis (IPH). 4 Plant stress and Insect interactions Galway et al. 2003<br>

Hypotheses to predict how insect herbivores perform on stressed host plants?
1 The plant stress hypothesis (PSH).
The PSH predicts improved insect performance on stressed hosts.
When plants are under stress, there is increases in leaf soluble nitrogen which makes plants more susceptible to insect herbivores.
Wood-feeding, sap-feeding and mining insects are the examples of insect herbivores which perform better on stressed host-plants. 5 Plant stress and Insect interactions Galway et al. 2003 Find more examples of insects which perform better on stressed plants<br>

1 The plant stress hypothesis (PSH) conti---.
The plant stress hypothesis was formulated Based on the observed outbreak dynamics of psyllids on water-stressed Eucalyptus trees.
Nitrogen is generally limiting for many insect herbivores.
Because increases in available plant nitrogen during periods of water stress could result in the improved growth and reproduction of phytophagous insects and thus promote population outbreaks. 6 Plant stress and Insect interactions White 1969; Galway et al. 2003<br>

2 The plant vigour hypothesis (PVH).
Certain insects would perform better on more vigorously growing host-plants particularly herbivores closely associated with their host-plant.
Such insect herbivores particularly attack young and vigorously growing plants and plant parts.
It includes the insects where the female selects the oviposition site within a few centimeters, where larvae will feed immediately upon hatching.
Leaf-feeding and gall-forming insects are the examples of insect that perform better on more vigorously growing host-plants. 7 Plant stress and Insect interactions Price 1991<br>

3 The insect performance hypothesis (IPH).
Combining elements of both the PSH and the PVH, Larsson (1989) suggested that certain insect feeding-guilds (wood-feeding, sap-feeding and mining insects) perform better on stressed host-plants,
Whereas other insect feeding-guilds (leaf-feeding and gall-forming insects) perform better on vigorously growing host plants. 8 Plant stress and Insect interactions Larsson 1989; Galway et al., 2003<br>

3 The insect performance hypothesis (IPH) conti----.
The rationale for IPH hypothesis was based on:
a) Woody plants under stress have reduced defensive compound flow, making them less resistant to attack by wood-feeders;
b) Sap-feeding insects generally encounter low nitrogen levels so that when a plant is stressed, with resulting higher nitrogen levels, insect performance improves; 9 Plant stress and Insect interactions Larsson 1989; Galway et al., 2003<br>

c) Miners are able to avoid consuming harmful defensive compounds produced by the plant while taking advantage of the higher nitrogen content of stressed plants;
d) Leaf-feeders do not separate out the chemical fractions in their food as efficiently as other feeding guilds that discriminate against defensive compounds in stressed plants, so do better on vigorously growing plants; and
e) Galling insects prefer large-sized buds, which are found on vigorously growing plants. 10 Plant stress and Insect interactions Larsson 1989; Galway et al., 2003<br>

The effects of drought on plant–pollinator interactions
About 78 % of plant species are pollinated by animals in temperate regions and these animals are largely dominated by insects, especially bees.
Drought will alter plant–pollinator interactions via:
(i) Signals or cues for insect visitors (floral display, plant height, number of flowers per plant, flower color, shape and size, olfactory compound quantity and composition) and
(ii) Floral rewards (nectar volume, total sugar concentration, sugar composition, pollen quantity and chemical composition). 11 Plant stress and Insect interactions Ollerton et al., 2011; Potts et al., 2016; Descamps et al., 2021<br>

The effects of drought on plant–pollinator interactions-conti---
Mismatches between plants and their pollinators can occur due to climate change and particularly due to extreme events such as drought.
At community level,
Drought may influence flowering time and/ or geographic distribution of plant species, which may create temporal and/or spatial mismatches between plant species and insect pollinators if they don’t find the plant species in their environment when they emerge in spring or summer (Figure 1, slide no 14). 12 Plant stress and Insect interactions Ollerton et al., 2011; Potts et al., 2016; Descamps et al., 2021<br>

Mismatches between plants and their pollinators can occur due to climate change and particularly due to extreme events such as drought.
At individual level,
Drought may influence floral signals and/or rewards, which may create morphological and/or recognition mismatches between plant species and insect pollinators if they change their foraging behavior or if their morphology do not allow them to forage on drought-modified flowers (Figure 1, slide no 14). 13 Plant stress and Insect interactions Descamps et al., 2021<br>

When plants are under stress, there is increases in leaf soluble nitrogen which makes plants more susceptible to insect herbivores.
Leaf-feeding and gall-forming insects perform better on more vigorously growing host-plants.
Woody plants under stress have reduced defensive compound flow, making them less resistant to attack by wood-feeders.
Drought will alter plant–pollinator interactions which might affect the crop production.
Extensive research is needed to investigate stressed plants other than drought and insect interactions and associate them with sustainable pest management. 15 Conclusion<br>
