Volatile organic compounds are important mediators of mutualistic interactions between
plants and their physical and biological surroundings. Volatiles rapidly indicate competition …

One of the most important challenges for individual plants is coexistence with their
neighbors. To compensate for their sessile lifestyle, plants developed complex and …

The sessile plant has developed mechanisms to survive the “rough and tumble” of its natural
surroundings, aided by its evolved innate immune system. Precise perception and rapid …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in general and herbivory-induced plant volatiles
(HIPVs) in particular are increasingly understood as major mediators of information transfer …

Although plants are sessile organisms, they can modulate their phenotype so as to cope
with environmental stresses such as herbivore attack and competition with neighbouring …

Plant volatile organic compounds are the most abundant and structurally diverse plant
secondary metabolites. They play a key role in plant lifespan via direct and indirect plant …

Plants interact with other organisms employing volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The
largest group of plant‐released VOCs are terpenes, comprised of isoprene, monoterpenes …

It is firmly established that plants respond to biotic and abiotic stimuli by emitting volatile
organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs provide information on the physiological status of …

Plants emit biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) causing transcriptomic,
metabolomic and behavioral responses in receiver organisms. Volatiles involved in such …

Plants communicate via the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with many
animals as well as other plants. We still know little about how VOCs are perceived by …
