Plant secondary metabolites (PSMs) are vital for human health and constitute the skeletal
framework of many pharmaceutical drugs. Indeed, more than 25% of the existing drugs …

Elevated tropospheric ozone concentrations induce adverse effects in plants. We reviewed
how ozone affects (i) the composition and diversity of plant communities by affecting key …

Individual biotic and abiotic stresses, such as high temperature, high light and herbivore
attack, are well known to increase the emission of volatile organic compounds from plants …

Biogenic volatile organic compounds produced by plants are involved in plant growth,
development, reproduction and defence. They also function as communication media within …

Reliable large-scale maize production is an essential component of global food security;
however, sustained efforts are needed to ensure optimized resilience under diverse crop …

Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a secondary pollutant that causes oxidative stress in plants due
to the generation of excess reactive oxygen species (ROS). Phenylpropanoid metabolism is …

In response to herbivory, plants emit specific blends of herbivore-induced plant volatiles
(HIPVs). HIPVs mediate sizable arrays of interactions between plants and arthropods …

Summary (E)-β-farnesene (EBF) is an important chemical cue mediating interactions
between plants, aphids, and natural enemies. This chemical has two origins, being secreted …

The attack of a plant by herbivorous arthropods can result in considerable changes in the
plant's chemical phenotype. The emission of so-called herbivore-induced plant volatiles …

All plants are able to emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the content and
composition of these molecules show both genotypic variation and phenotypic plasticity …
