Key message Recent updates in JA biosynthesis, signaling pathways and the crosstalk
between JA and others phytohormones in relation with plant responses to different stresses …

Jasmonates (JAs) are physiologically important molecules involved in a wide range of plant
responses from growth, flowering, senescence to defence against abiotic and biotic stress …

Jasmonates (JAs), including jasmonic acid (JA), its precursor 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid
(OPDA) and its derivatives jasmonoyl-isoleucine (JA-Ile), methyl jasmonate (MeJA), cis …

The peach–potato aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer), is one of the most important pests of
economic crops. It damages the plant directly by consuming nutrients and water and …

Plants are continuously threatened by a plethora of biotic stresses caused by microbes,
pathogens, and pests, which often act as the major constraint in crop productivity. To …

BACKGROUND Many herbivore‐induced volatiles have been proven to act as signaling
compounds to regulate nearby plant defense responses. However, the precise roles of key …

Larvae of Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner) cause significant damage to maize ears and reduce
market value of fresh sweet corn. Females rely on volatile cues to locate and oviposit …

Background and aim Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) use odor cues to locate and
infect their insect hosts in the soil, making them an important tool in sustainable …

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are ubiquitous soil-thriving organisms that use
chemical cues to seek and infect soil-dwelling arthropods, yielding various levels of …

In response to herbivory, plants synthesize and release variable mixtures of herbivore-
induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) as indirect defense traits. Such induction of indirect plant …
