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 …

Summary 666 I. Introduction 667 II. Biosynthesis 667 III. Meta‐analysis 669 IV. The type of
stress influences the total amount of GLVs released 669 V. Herbivores can modulate the …

Aphids transmit viruses and are destructive crop pests. Plants that have been attacked by
aphids release volatile compounds to elicit airborne defence (AD) in neighbouring plants …

Plants perceive volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by mechanically-or herbivore-
damaged neighboring plants and induce various defense responses. Such interplant …

Herbivore-induced volatile organic compounds prime non-attacked plant tissues to respond
more strongly to subsequent attacks. However, the key volatiles that trigger this primed state …

Plants respond to herbivore attack by launching 2 types of defenses: direct defense and
indirect defense. Direct defense includes all plant traits that increase the resistance of host …

Plants cannot avoid being attacked by an almost infinite number of microorganisms and
insects. Consequently, they arm themselves with molecular weapons against their attackers …

Plants respond to mechanical wounding, herbivore feeding or infection by pathogens with
the release of volatiles. Small C6 molecules termed green‐leaf volatiles form a general …

Specific plant associations may decrease (associational resistance, AR) or increase
(associational susceptibility, AS) the likelihood of detection by, and/or vulnerability to …

Most ecologists are not card-carrying members of either individualistic or interdependent
guilds, but our perception of plant community organization, and the way we conduct …
