Covering: 2010 to 2023 Floral volatiles are a chemically diverse group of plant metabolites
that serve multiple functions. Their composition is shaped by environmental, ecological and …

Ever since the first plant secondary metabolites (PSMs) were isolated and identified,
questions about their ecological functions and diversity have been raised. Recent advances …

Metabolite formation is a biochemical and physiological feature of plants developed as an
environmental response during the evolutionary process. These metabolites help defend …

Plants synthesize an amazing diversity of volatile organic compounds (VOC s) that facilitate
interactions with their environment, from attracting pollinators and seed dispersers to …

Because most plants rely on animals for pollination, insights from animal sensory ecology
and behavior are essential for understanding the evolution of flowers. In this review, we …

Every plant is a member of a complex insect community that consists of tens to hundreds of
species that belong to different trophic levels. The dynamics of this community are critically …

The plant microbiome can influence plant phenotype in diverse ways, yet microbial
contribution to plant volatile phenotype remains poorly understood. We examine the …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in general and herbivory-induced plant volatiles
(HIPVs) in particular are increasingly understood as major mediators of information transfer …

Floral chemistry mediates plant interactions with pollinators, pathogens, and herbivores, with
major consequences for fitness of both plants and flower visitors. The outcome of such …

The need to reduce pollinator exposure to harmful pesticides has led to calls to expedite the
adoption of integrated pest management (IPM). We make the case that IPM is not explicitly …
