We developed and applied a fully automated portable gas chromatography (GC) device for
rapid and in situ analysis of plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to examine plant …

Plants use volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to cue natural enemies to their herbivore
prey on plants. Simultaneously, herbivores utilize volatile cues to identify appropriate hosts …

Plants have evolved various defense mechanisms to cope with biotic and abiotic stresses.
Cooperation with microorganisms, especially arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) …

Plants are exposed to herbivores and symbionts above and below ground. Herbivores
above ground alter plant defenses in both leaves and roots, affecting plant–herbivore …

This study sheds light on a poorly understood area in insect–plant–microbe interactions,
focusing on aphid probing and feeding behavior on plants with varying levels of arbuscular …

The rhizosphere is a dynamic region influenced by complex interactions between plants and
microbes that are closely linked to the metabolically active hotspots of the roots below the …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbioses with the roots of most plant species,
including cereals. AMF can increase the uptake of nutrients including nitrogen (N) and …

As primary producers, plants play a central role in mediating interactions across trophic
levels. Although plants are the primary food source for herbivorous insects, they can protect …

This research examined aphid and plant responses to distinct levels (none, low, and high) of
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal root colonization by studying the association between …

The plant roots are invariably colonized by an extent of tiny microorganisms including
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) which support plant health in multiple ways. The …
