The evolutionary context for herbivore-induced plant volatiles: beyond the "cry-for-help"

TLDR
Molecular advances in understanding of HIPV signaling and biosynthesis is enabling the creation of HIPv-'mute' and possibly HIPV-'deaf' plants, which could be used for unbiased examination of the fitness value of HIPVs emissions under natural conditions.

Hormonal Modulation of Plant Immunity

TL;DR: Evidence is emerging that beneficial root-inhabiting microbes also hijack the hormone-regulated immune signaling network to establish a prolonged mutualistic association, highlighting the central role of plant hormones in the regulation of plant growth and survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jasmonates: biosynthesis, perception, signal transduction and action in plant stress response, growth and development. An update to the 2007 review in Annals of Botany

TL;DR: Important new components of jasmonate signalling including its receptor were identified, providing deeper insight into the role ofJASMONATE signalling pathways in stress responses and development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induced systemic resistance by beneficial microbes

TL;DR: This review focuses on molecular processes at the interface between plant roots and ISR-eliciting mutualists, and on the progress in the understanding of ISR signaling and systemic defense priming.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Insights into Plant Responses to the Attack from Insect Herbivores

TL;DR: This work considers the intraspecific phenotypic diversity of plant responses to herbivory and discusses the underlying genetic variation and new tools and technical challenges in studying plant-herbivore interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perception of plant volatile blends by herbivorous insects – Finding the right mix

TL;DR: Perception of blends of plant volatiles plays a pivotal role in host recognition, non-host avoidance and ensuing behavioural responses as different responses can occur to a whole blend compared to individual components.

Interactions Among Three Trophic Levels: Influence of Plants on Interactions Between Insect Herbivores and Natural Enemies

TL;DR: It is argued that theory on insect-plant interactions cannot progress realistically without consideration of the third trophic level, and plants have many effects, direct and indirect, positive and negative, not only on herbivore but also on the enemies of herbivores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Networking by small-molecule hormones in plant immunity.

TL;DR: Recent advances in plant immunity research have provided exciting new insights into the underlying defense signaling network, and diverse small-molecule hormones play pivotal roles in the regulation of this network.
Book

The Geographic Mosaic of Coevolution

TL;DR: Picking up where his influential The Coevolutionary Process left off, John N. Thompson synthesizes the state of a rapidly developing science that integrates approaches from evolutionary ecology, population genetics, phylogeography, systematics, evolutionary biochemistry and physiology, and molecular biology.
Book

Insect-plant biology

TL;DR: The mechanisms underlying plant resistance to invading herbivores on the one side, and insect food specialization on the other, are the main subjects of this book.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defensive function of herbivore-induced plant volatile emissions in nature.

TL;DR: The authors quantified volatile emissions fromNicotiana attenuata plants growing in natural populations during attack by three species of leaf-feeding herbivores and mimicked the release of five commonly emitted volatiles individually.
