Relative Selectivity of Plant Cardenolides for Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases From the Monarch Butterfly and Non-resistant Insects

A major prediction of coevolutionary theory is that plants may target particular herbivores with secondary compounds that are selectively defensive. The highly specialized monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) copes well with cardiac glycosides (inhibitors of animal Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases) from its milkw...
