Plant Secondary Metabolites as Defenses, Regulators, and Primary Metabolites: The Blurred
Functional Trichotomy | Plant Physiology | Oxford Academic Skip to Main Content Advertisement …

It is firmly established that plants respond to biotic and abiotic stimuli by emitting volatile
organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs provide information on the physiological status of …

A growing number of non-human animal species are being seriously considered as
candidates for sentience, but plants are either forgotten or explicitly excluded from these …

Unlike animal behavior, behavior in plants is traditionally assumed to be completely
determined either genetically or environmentally. Under this assumption, plants are usually …

Plant defense responses against insect herbivores are induced through wound-induced
signaling and the specific perception of herbivore-associated molecular patterns (HAMPs) …

Plants continuously form new organs in different developmental contexts in response to
environmental cues. Underground lateral roots initiate from prepatterned cells in the main …

Herbivore‐induced plant volatiles play important ecological roles in defense against
stresses. However, if and which volatile (s) are involved in the plant–plant communication in …

Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are an ancient form of tissue-derived
danger or alarm signals that initiate cellular signaling cascades, which often initiate defined …

Herbivore-induced plant volatiles regulate defenses in undamaged neighboring plants.
Understanding the mechanisms by which plant volatiles are taken up, perceived, and …

Insect pests negatively affect crop quality and yield; identifying new methods to protect crops
against insects therefore has important agricultural applications. Our analysis of transgenic …
