Changes in plants following damage or stress are called" induced responses." In the
broadest sense, these changes can increase the" resistance" of the plant to further herbivore …

Inducible defenses are responses activated through a previous encounter with a consumer
or competitor that confer some degree of resistance to subsequent attacks. While the …

Endophytes are fungi that form inapparent infections within leaves and stems of healthy
plants. Closely related to virulent pathogens but with limited, if any, pathogenic effects …

Biological control provides an environmentally safe, cost-effective and energyefficient
means of pest control, either alone or as a component of integrated pest management. The …

The genus Verticillium Nees represents one of the world's major fungal pathogens, affecting
crop plants mostly in the cool and warm temperate regions, it also occurs in sub-tropical and …

Plant resistance to herbivores was induced in a field experiment to evaluate the
consequences of induced responses for subsequent herbivory and plant fitness. Induction …

▪ Abstract Plant-mediated interactions between pathogenic microorganisms and arthropod
herbivores occur when arthropod infestation or pathogen infection changes the shared host …

▪ Abstract Although predation has a lethal effect on prey, mature terrestrial plants are rarely
killed by herbivores, but herbivory can change plant allelochemistry, cell structure and …

Insect-fungus-plant tripartite interactions are reviewed centring on the interactions which
occur when insects and fungi are present on the same host plant and mainly excluding …

Two signaling pathways, one involving salicylic acid and another involving jasmonic acid,
participate in the expression of plant resistance to pathogens and insect herbivores. In this …
