Benzoxazinoids are a class of indole-derived plant chemical defenses comprising
compounds with a 2-hydroxy-2 H-1, 4-benzoxazin-3 (4 H)-one skeleton and their …

Benzoxazinoids are a class of indole-derived plant metabolites that function in defense
against numerous pests and pathogens. Due to their abundance in maize (Zea mays) and …

Herbivore-induced volatile organic compounds prime non-attacked plant tissues to respond
more strongly to subsequent attacks. However, the key volatiles that trigger this primed state …

Highlights•Roots release a highly diverse group of compounds in the rhizosphere.•Most of
these compounds are involved in mutualistic interaction with soil-dwelling organisms.•Such …

By releasing specialized metabolites, plants modify their environment. Whether and how
specialized metabolites protect plants against toxic levels of trace elements is not well …

Allelopathic activity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has previously been associated with the
production of phenolic acids and flavonoids (PAF), benzoxazinones (BXZs) and …

Benzoxazinoids are important defense compounds in grasses. Here, we investigated the
biosynthesis and biological roles of the 8-O-methylated benzoxazinoids, DIM2BOA-Glc and …

Benzoxazinoids (BXs) are secondary metabolites present in many Poaceae including the
major crops maize, wheat, and rye. In contrast to other potentially toxic secondary …

Plants adapt to balance growth–defense tradeoffs in response to both biotic and abiotic
stresses. Green leaf volatiles (GLVs) are released after biotic and abiotic stresses and …

Plants release herbivore‐induced volatiles (HIPV s), which can be used as cues by plants,
herbivores and natural enemies. Theory predicts that HIPV s may initially have evolved …
