Herbivore-induced, indirect plant defences
Indirect responses are defensive strategies by which plants attract natural enemies of their
herbivores that act as plant defending agents. Such defences can be either constitutively …

[HTML][HTML] Sites of synthesis, biochemistry and functional role of plant volatiles
ME Maffei - South African Journal of Botany, 2010 - Elsevier
All plants are able to emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the content and
composition of these molecules show both genotypic variation and phenotypic plasticity …

Variation in natural plant products and the attraction of bodyguards involved in indirect plant defense
Plants can respond to feeding or egg deposition by herbivorous arthropods by changing the
volatile blend that they emit. These herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) can attract …

Defence mechanisms of Brassicaceae: implications for plant-insect interactions and potential for integrated pest management
Brassica crops are grown worldwide for oil, food and feed purposes, and constitute a
significant economic value due to their nutritional, medicinal, bioindustrial, biocontrol and …

Insects feeding on plants: rapid signals and responses preceding the induction of phytochemical release
The ability of plants to withstand herbivores relies on direct and indirect chemical defense.
By using toxic phytochemicals, plants can deter and/or poison herbivores, while by releasing …

Restoring a maize root signal that attracts insect-killing nematodes to control a major pest
J Degenhardt, I Hiltpold, TG Köllner… - Proceedings of the …, 2009 - National Acad Sciences
When attacked by herbivorous insects, plants emit volatile compounds that attract natural
enemies of the insects. It has been proposed that these volatile signals can be manipulated …

Early herbivore alert: insect eggs induce plant defense
Plants are able to “notice” insect egg deposition and to respond by activating direct and
indirect defenses. An overview of these defenses and the underlying mechanisms is given …
