Journal ArticleDOI

Plant-mediated interactions between pathogenic microorganisms and herbivorous arthropods

TL;DR: Research has focused on the role of two plant response pathways in mediating tripartite interactions, one involving jasmonic acid and the other salicylic acid, and will facilitate an understanding of how plants coordinate and integrate their defenses against multiple biotic threats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antinutritive and toxic components of plant defense against insects

TL;DR: It is proposed that chemical context and mixture are critical determinants of biological activity, and that viewing natural products as isolated defensive factors is often misleading.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exogenous jasmonates simulate insect wounding in tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum) in the laboratory and field.

TL;DR: It is shown that application of jasmonates in low concentrations to foliage of young tomato plants induced, in a dose-dependent manner, the same protein responses-polyphenol oxidase, proteinase inhibitors, lipoxygenase, and peroxidase-as does Helicoverpa zea Boddie feeding, and this may prove to be a useful tool for stimulating plant resistance to insects in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Costs of induced responses and tolerance to herbivory in male and female fitness components of wild radish.

TL;DR: It is suggested that consideration of alternative plant defense strategies and multiple costs will result in a broader understanding of the evolutionary ecology of plant defense.
Journal ArticleDOI

Signal interactions in pathogen and insect attack: Systemic plant-mediated interactions between pathogens and herbivores of the tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum

TL;DR: Clear evidence is provided for reciprocal induced resistance involving certain pathogens and arthropod herbivores of tomato and several insights are provided into the integration and coordination of the induced defenses of tomato against multiple pests.
