Jasmonate-dependent and-independent pathways mediate specific effects of solar ultraviolet B radiation on leaf phenolics and antiherbivore defense
Abstract Ultraviolet B (UV-B) radiation, a very small fraction of the daylight spectrum, elicits
changes in plant secondary metabolism that have large effects on plant-insect interactions …

Antagonistic plant defense system regulated by phytohormones assists interactions among vector insect, thrips and a tospovirus
The western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) is a polyphagous herbivore that causes
serious damage to many agricultural plants. In addition to causing feeding damage, it is also …

Thrips advisor: exploiting thrips-induced defences to combat pests on crops
Plants have developed diverse defence mechanisms to ward off herbivorous pests.
However, agriculture still faces estimated crop yield losses ranging from 25% to 40 …

Crosstalk between phytohormones and pesticides: Insights into unravelling the crucial roles of plant growth regulators in improving crop resilience to pesticide stress
In conventional agricultural practices, pesticides are applied to protect crops from harmful
insect pests; however, pervasive usage in high-yield crop systems poses a significant risk to …

Plant-Herbivore Interactions: A Case of an Extreme Generalist, the Two-Spotted Spider Mite Tetranychus urticae
Plant-herbivore interactions evolved over long periods of time, resulting in an elaborate
arms race between interacting species. While specialist herbivores evolved specific …

Induction of jasmonic acid-associated defenses by thrips alters host suitability for conspecifics and correlates with increased trichome densities in tomato
Plant defenses inducible by herbivorous arthropods can determine performance of
subsequent feeding herbivores. We investigated how infestation of tomato (Solanum …
