The sessile nature of plants has resulted in the evolution of an extraordinarily diverse suite
of protective mechanisms against biotic and abiotic stresses. Though volatile isoprenoids …

Fungi can be found in almost all sorts of habitats competing with an even higher number of
other organisms. As a consequence fungi developed a number of strategies for protection …

Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), particularly terpenoids, can significantly
drive the formation of ozone (O 3) and secondary organic aerosols (SOA) in the atmosphere …

The high reactivity and low vapor pressure of many biogenic volatile organic compounds
(BVOC) make it difficult to measure whole-canopy fluxes of BVOC species using common …

Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) contribute significantly to the formation of
ozone and secondary organic aerosol (SOA). The Model of Emissions of Gases and …

Despite the importance of Artemisia annua L. as the only source of the anti-parasitic drug
artemisinin, little is known on the effects of biotic and abiotic stress on artemisinin …

Our understanding of biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions improved
substantially during the last years. Nevertheless, there are still large uncertainties of …

In this paper, we have identified a new sesquiterpene synthase gene (ZSS2) from Zingiber
zerumbet Smith. Functional expression of ZSS2 in Escherichia coli and in vitro enzyme …

Abstract Background and Aims Rotundone, a potent aroma compound responsible for
peppery aroma and flavour in S hiraz, was detected recently in V itis vinifera L. cv. D uras …

Emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from vegetation are believed to be a major
source of secondary organic aerosol (SOA), which in turn comprises a large fraction of fine …
