Herbivory by Leaf-Cutting Ants: Exploring the Jasmonate Response in Host and Non-Host Plants
Leaf-cutting ants (Formicidae; Atta spp., Acromyrmex spp.) cut off pieces of leaves and other plant tissue and feed it to their symbiotic fungi. As...

Uninfested eggplants exposed to volatiles from conspecific plants infested by omnivorous mirids exhibit jasmonic acid priming and enhanced defenses against herbivores
We studied plant–plant communication in a system that included eggplants, herbivores as prey, and the omnivorous mirid Nesidiocoris tenuis . When...

A green leaf volatile, (Z)-3-hexenyl-acetate, mediates differential oviposition by Spodoptera frugiperda on maize and rice
BackgroundInsects rely on chemosensory perception, mainly olfaction, for the location of mates, food sources, and oviposition sites. Plant-released...

Herbivore-Dependent Induced Volatiles in Pear Plants Cause Differential Attractive Response by Lacewing Larvae
Biological control may benefit from the behavioral manipulation of natural enemies using volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Among these,...

Specificity of vectoring and non-vectoring flower thrips species to pathogen-induced plant volatiles
Insect-vectored plant pathogens are known to alter host-plant quality and associated cues, subsequently affecting the frequency of interactions with...
