Journal ArticleDOI

Monika Hilker,Jens Schwachtje,Margarete Baier,Salma Balazadeh,Isabel Bäurle,Sven Geiselhardt,Dirk K. Hincha,Reinhard Kunze,Bernd Mueller-Roeber,Matthias C. Rillig,Jens Rolff,Tina Romeis,Thomas Schmülling,Anke Steppuhn,Joost T. van Dongen,Sarah J. Whitcomb,Susanne Wurst,Ellen Zuther,Joachim Kopka +18 more
TL;DR: A conceptual framework for priming of stress responses in bacteria, fungi and plants is proposed which allows comparison of priming with other terms, e.g. adaptation, acclimation, induction, acquired resistance and cross protection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early herbivore alert: insect eggs induce plant defense.
Monika Hilker,Torsten Meiners +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of oviposition-induced plant volatiles and contact cues for host and prey location of parasitoids and predators is discussed in the context of other informative chemicals used by carnivores when searching for food.
BookDOI
Chemoecology of insect eggs and egg deposition
Monika Hilker,Torsten Meiners +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter mainly deals with oviposition or larviposition behaviour within the Diptera, since the major groups that exhibit such behaviour and that constitute pests of major medical or veterinary importance are true flies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foraging behavior of egg parasitoids exploiting chemical information
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview on the variety of host-foraging strategies of egg parasitoids exploiting chemical signals is provided and the use of such infochemicals is discussed with respect to the wasps' dietary breadth and their ability to learn.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant responses to insect egg deposition.
Monika Hilker,Nina E. Fatouros +1 more
TL;DR: The ability of plants to take insect eggs as warning signals; the eggs indicate future larval feeding damage and trigger plant changes that either directly impair larval performance or attract enemies of the larvae.
