Previous work has shown that tobacco plants near clipped sagebrush became more resistant to their herbivores relative to tobacco near unclipped sagebrush. This increase in resistance did not occur for other plant species that grow near sagebrush. We found that eavesdropping between these species only occurred over relatively short distances (10-15cm) which limits the ecological importance of the interaction. Sagebrush individuals also became more resistant near clipped conspecifics. We plan to repeat this experiment and determine which herbivore species are affected and over what distances.
