Herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) are an important cue used in herbivore location
by carnivorous arthropods such as parasitoids. The effects of plant volatiles on parasitoids …

Insect intraspecific olfactory communication occurs in a complex sensory environment. Here
we present recent results on how the olfactory system extracts specific information from a …

Kairomones are chemical signals that mediate interspecific interactions beneficial to
organisms that detect the cues. These attractants can be individual compounds or mixtures …

The global climate is rapidly changing and the evidence is increasingly manifesting across
various biological systems. For arthropods, several studies have demonstrated how …

Understanding the role of diversity in ecosystem processes and species interactions is a
central goal of ecology. For plant–herbivore interactions, it has been hypothesized that when …

Herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPV s) serve as specific cues to higher trophic levels.
Novel, exotic herbivores entering native foodwebs may disrupt the infochemical network as …

Crop diversification through inter‐and mixed cropping practices has been shown to enhance
conservation biological control of herbivorous pest insects. However, distinct cropping …

Populations of herbivorous insects are naturally consumed by other predacious or predatory
insect species. These entomophagous insects are thus plant-dwelling organisms that use …
