Very little information exists on the phenolic protein-conplexing resins, except for that on creosote bush and sane arctic plants. In contrast to condensed tannins and hydrolyzable tannins, these are typically ether-soluble compounds this may allow their entry into the body across cell membranes, and thios give them the potential for action outside the gut lumen. Reports for animals consuming seaweed indicate that astringent protein-precipitating substances (presumably phlorotannins), are potentially important in marine plant-herbivore interactions.

While there are only a few cases of induction of chemical defenses among seaweeds, the phenomenon is very common among terrestrial plants." This discrepancy in the prevalence of inducible defenses in terrestrial vs. marine plants could be due to the different biologies of vascular terrestrial plants vs. nonvascular seaweeds (e.g., the induction stimulus from localized damage may not be efficiently translocated in seaweeds133), complex interactions between grazing damage and environmental conditions,161 or herbivore taxa studied,5 but the lesser amount of research on seaweeds relative to terrestrial plants may also explain much of the disparity.
