Plants respond to environmental stimuli via the release of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), and neighboring plants constantly monitor and respond to these VOCs with great …

Covering: up to November 2022 Plants shape terrestrial ecosystems through physical and
chemical interactions. Plant-derived volatile organic compounds in particular influence the …

Climate change profoundly affects the timing of seasonal activities of organisms, known as
phenology. The impact of climate change is not unidirectional; it is also influenced by plant …

Plant volatiles are crucial for various interactions with other organisms and their surrounding
environment. A large number of these volatiles belong to the terpenoid and benzenoid …

Phenotypic plasticity is a ubiquitous and necessary adaptation of organisms to variable
environments, but most environments have multiple dimensions that vary. Many studies …
