This project investigates how plants release specific volatile compounds in response to pests and diseases. By studying maize, the project aims to develop sensors that detect these unique odour blends, enabling real-time monitoring of crop health and timely pest management.
Plants typically release large quantities of volatiles in response to attack by herbivores or pathogens. I may claim to have contributed to various breakthroughs in this research field, including the discovery that the volatile blends induced by different attackers are astonishingly specific, resulting in characteristic, readily distinguishable odour blends.
Using maize as our model plant, I wish to take several leaps forward in our understanding of this signal specificity and use this knowledge…
