Pith‐specific lignification in Nicotiana attenuata as a defense against a stem‐boring herbivore
Plants have developed tissue‐specific defense strategies in response to various herbivores
with different feeding habits. Although defense responses to leaf‐chewing insects have …

Auxin is rapidly induced by herbivore attack and regulates a subset of systemic, jasmonate-dependent defenses
Plant responses to herbivore attack are regulated by phytohormonal networks. To date, the
role of the auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in this context is not well understood. We …

What happens in the pith stays in the pith: tissue‐localized defense responses facilitate chemical niche differentiation between two spatially separated herbivores
Herbivore attack is known to elicit systemic defense responses that spread throughout the
host plant and influence the performance of other herbivores. While these plant‐mediated …

Flavone‐associated resistance of two Lemna species to duckweed weevil attack
Lemna perpusilla and Lemna minor are free‐floating plants that often live in the same
habitat. However, little is known about how they differ in response to herbivore attacks. In …

Strigolactone signaling regulates specialized metabolism in tobacco stems and interactions with stem-feeding herbivores
Plants are attacked by herbivores, which often specialize on different tissues, and in
response, have evolved sophisticated resistance strategies that involve different types of …

Analyses of structural dynamics revealed flexible binding mechanism for the Agrilus mali odorant binding protein 8 towards plant volatiles
D Li, C Li, D Liu - Pest Management Science, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
BACKGROUND Volatiles from host plants are an important source of insect pest attractants
and repellents. Insect odorant binding proteins (OBPs) have been widely characterized, but …

Observational evidence of herbivore‐specific associational effects between neighboring conspecifics in natural, dimorphic populations of Datura wrightii
JK Goldberg, SR Sternlieb, G Pintel… - Ecology and …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Associational effects—in which the vulnerability of a plant to herbivores is influenced by its
neighbors—have been widely implicated in mediating plant–herbivore interactions. Studies …

Divergent host plant utilization by adults and offspring is related to intra‐plant variation in chemical defences
CJ Mason, DC Long, RL Lindroth… - Journal of Animal …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Adult and juvenile herbivores of the same species can use divergent feeding strategies, and
thus may inhabit and consume different parts of the plant. Because the expression of …

Girdling behavior of the longhorn beetle modulates the host plant to enhance larval performance
MS Choi, J Lee, JM Kim, SG Kim, Y Joo - BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2024 - Springer
Background Preingestive behavioral modulations of herbivorous insects on the host plant
are abundant over insect taxa. Those behaviors are suspected to have functions such as …
