Plants have diverse ways of responding to damage by herbivores, such as changes in
allelochemistry, physiology, morphology, growth, and phenology. These responses form the …

We report a potential role of endogenous cytokinin supply in priming plant defense against
herbivory. Cytokinin priming significantly reduced weight gain by insect larvae. Unlike …

Poplar has been established as a model tree system for genomic research of the response
to biotic stresses. This study describes a series of induced transcriptome changes and the …

Plants use both internal and external signals to mount their systemic responses to local
enemy attack. Resistance to herbivores being induced by airborne cures (VOCs, volatile …

Herbivory and wounding upregulate a large suite of defense genes in hybrid poplar leaves.
A strongly wound-and herbivore-induced gene with high similarity to Arabidopsis vegetative …
