Summary 666 I. Introduction 667 II. Biosynthesis 667 III. Meta‐analysis 669 IV. The type of
stress influences the total amount of GLVs released 669 V. Herbivores can modulate the …

Green leaf volatiles (GLVs) are commonly emitted by green plants, and their production is
drastically enhanced when they are under biotic stress. To clarify the ecological function of …

Plants respond to mechanical wounding, herbivore feeding or infection by pathogens with
the release of volatiles. Small C6 molecules termed green‐leaf volatiles form a general …

Plants synthesize and emit a large variety of volatile organic compounds, which possess
extremely important ecological functions. In most case, most plant volatiles are liquids, rather …

Plants synthesize an amazing diversity of volatile organic compounds (VOC s) that facilitate
interactions with their environment, from attracting pollinators and seed dispersers to …

Plants are multifaceted chemical factories that produce a multitude of compounds ranging
from ethylene and methanol to complex terpenoids and nitrogen-containing alkaloids. More …

Green leaf volatiles (GLVs) are C6 aldehydes, alcohols, and their esters formed through the
hydroperoxide lyase pathway of oxylipin metabolism. Plants start to form GLVs after …

Plants cannot avoid being attacked by an almost infinite number of microorganisms and
insects. Consequently, they arm themselves with molecular weapons against their attackers …

Plant odours are the most ubiquitous volatiles in nature. This chapter deals with the
biochemistry and molecular biology of plant volatiles that are emitted from vegetative tissues …

Herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPV s) mediate critical ecological functions, but no
studies have quantitatively synthesized data published on HIPV s to evaluate broad …
