Diverse molecular processes regulate the interactions between plants and insect
herbivores. Here, we review genes and proteins that are involved in plant–herbivore …

The circadian oscillator is a complex network of interconnected feedback loops that
regulates a wide range of physiological processes. Indeed, variation in clock genes has …

Herbivorous insects represent one of the major threats to sessile plants. To cope with
herbivore challenges, plants have evolved sophisticated defense systems, in which the lipid …

Endogenous circadian clock integrates cyclic signals of environment and daily and seasonal
behaviors of organisms to achieve spatiotemporal synchronization, which greatly improves …

The circadian clock, a time-keeping mechanism, drives nearly 24-h self-sustaining rhythms
at the physiological, cellular, and molecular levels, keeping them synchronized with the …

The growth–defense trade-off in plants is a phenomenon whereby plants must balance the
allocation of their resources between developmental growth and defense against attack by …

Acute and precise signal perception and transduction are essential for plant defense against
insects. Insect elicitors—that is, the biologically active molecules from insects' oral secretion …

Plant defense, growth, and reproduction can be modulated by chemicals emitted from
neighboring plants, mainly via volatile aboveground signals. However, belowground signals …

Like many organisms, plants have evolved a genetic network, the circadian clock, to
coordinate processes with day/night cycles. In plants, the clock is a pervasive regulator of …

Key message Jasmonate-induced accumulation of anti-herbivore compounds mediates rice
resistance to the leaf folder Cnaphalocrocis medinalis. Abstract The rice leaf folder (LF) …
