Plant secondary compounds (PSCs), also called secondary metabolites, have high chemical
and structural diversity and appear as non-volatile or volatile compounds. These …

Plant secondary metabolites (PSMs) are plant products that are discontinuously distributed
throughout the plant kingdom. These secondary compounds have various chemical groups …

Exposure of plants and animals to ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B; 280–315 nm) is modified by
stratospheric ozone dynamics and climate change. Even though stabilisation and projected …

Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light plays a crucial role in plant–herbivorous arthropods interactions by
inducing changes in constitutive and inducible plant defenses. In particular, constitutive …

Plants perceive ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation through the UV-B photoreceptor UV
RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8), and initiate regulatory responses via associated signalling …

Monoterpenes are volatile organic compounds that play important roles in atmospheric
chemistry, plant physiology, communication, and defense. This review compiles the …

Plants have to cope with various environmental stress factors which significantly impact
plant physiology and secondary metabolism. Individual stresses, such as low temperature …

Although considerable evidence has accumulated on the defensive activity of plant volatile
organic compounds against pathogens and insect herbivores, less is known about the …

Exotic invasive plants are present in almost all terrestrial ecosystems. Their spread and
ability to colonize new habitats are predicted to increase with human travel, global trade …

The functional reasons for isoprene emission are still a matter of hot debate. It was
hypothesized that isoprene biosynthesis evolved as an ancestral mechanism in plants …
