The necessity for non-chemical approaches has grown as awareness of the dangers posed
by pesticides has spread. Chitosan, due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and …

Jasmonic acid (JA) and its precursors and dervatives, referred as jasmonates (JAs) are
important molecules in the regulation of many physiological processes in plant growth and …

Volatile organic compounds are important mediators of mutualistic interactions between
plants and their physical and biological surroundings. Volatiles rapidly indicate competition …

Plants as immovable organisms sense the stressors in their environment and respond to
them by means of dedicated stress response pathways. In response to stress, jasmonates …

Tritrophic interactions between plants, herbivores, and their natural enemies are an integral
part of all terrestrial ecosystems. Herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) play a key role in …

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 …

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

The lipid-derived phytohormone jasmonate (JA) regulates plant growth, development,
secondary metabolism, defense against insect attack and pathogen infection, and tolerance …

Plant in vitro cultures represent an attractive and cost-effective alternative to classical
approaches to plant secondary metabolite (PSM) production (the “Plant Cell Factory” …

Cell membranes are the initial site of stimulus perception from environment and
phospholipids are the basic and important components of cell membranes. Phospholipases …
