TLDR
It is predicted that reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a role in gall induction, development and histochemical gradient formation and activity of carbohydrate-related enzymes across diverse galls corroborates this hypothesis.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Insect-induced effects on plants and possible effectors used by galling and leaf-mining insects to manipulate their host-plant
TL;DR: Key plant functions targeted by various plant reprogrammers, including plant-manipulating insects and nematodes, are reviewed, and insect herbivore-derived effectors are functionally characterized to provide a broader understanding of possible mechanisms used in host-plant manipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gall-forming root-knot nematodes hijack key plant cellular functions to induce multinucleate and hypertrophied feeding cells.
Bruno Favery,Bruno Favery,Michaël Quentin,Michaël Quentin,Stéphanie Jaubert-Possamai,Stéphanie Jaubert-Possamai,Pierre Abad,Pierre Abad +7 more
TL;DR: Progress in understanding host plant responses is highlighted, focusing on how RKNs manipulate key plant processes and functions, including cell cycle, defence, hormones, cellular scaffold, metabolism and transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of limited neoplastic growth on Pongamia pinnata (L.) (Fabaceae) leaf, induced by Aceria pongamiae (Acari: Eriophyidae).
P. P. Anand,N. Ramani +1 more
TL;DR: Agarwal et al. as mentioned in this paper shed light on the gall inducing habit of a highly host specific eriophyid mite, Aceria pongamiae, on the leaves of Pongamia pinnata leading to the production of abnormal pouch like outgrowths on the adaxial and abaxial surfaces of the foliage.

Sink Status and Photosynthetic Rate of the Leaflet Galls Induced by Bystracoccus mataybae (Eriococcidae) on Matayba guianensis (Sapindaceae).
Denis Coelho de Oliveira,Ana Silvia Franco Pinheiro Moreira,Rosy Mary dos Santos Isaias,Vitor C. Martini,Uiara Costa Rezende +4 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that high levels of nutrients are accumulated during gall development in response to a local maintenance of photosynthesis and to the galling insect activity, and to supply the demands of gall metabolism, the levels of water-soluble polysaccharides and starch increase in gall tissues.

Feeding and Other Gall Facets: Patterns and Determinants in Gall Structure
Bruno G. Ferreira,Bruno G. Ferreira,Rafael Álvarez,Gracielle Pereira Pimenta Bragança,Danielle Ramos de Alvarenga,Nicolás Pérez-Hidalgo,Rosy Mary dos Santos Isaias +6 more
TL;DR: The animal-induced galls have a striking anatomical diversity, concerning several patterns, which were reunited herein, and culminates in extant gall structural diversity.

Journal ArticleDOI
The dilemma of plants: To grow or defend.
TL;DR: A conceptual model of the evolution of plant defense is concluded, in which plant physioligical trade-offs interact with the abiotic environment, competition and herbivory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resource Availability and Plant Antiherbivore Defense
TL;DR: Resource availability in the environment is proposed as the major determinant of both the amount and type of plant defense, and theories on the evolution of plant defenses are compared with other theories.
Journal ArticleDOI
How many species are there on Earth
TL;DR: Current answers to the factual question posed in the title are surveyed and the kinds of information that are needed to make these answers more precise are reviewed.

Ethylene as a Signal Mediating the Wound Response of Tomato Plants
Philip J. O'Donnell,Caroline M. Calvert,R. Atzorn,C. Wasternack,H. M. O. Leyser,Dianna J. Bowles +5 more
TL;DR: In tomato plants, one class of wound-responsive genes encodes proteinase inhibitor (pin) proteins shown to block insect feeding, and ethylene and jasmonates act together to regulate pin gene expression during the wound response.
Journal ArticleDOI
The adaptive significance of insect gall morphology
TL;DR: It is suggested that the hypothesis that selection imposed by enemies remains the most probable adaptive explanation for the evolution of diversity in insect galls has yet to be tested explicitly, and the requirements for an appropriate cross-species analysis are discussed.
