This research explores how plants communicate through volatile organic compounds to enhance their defenses against herbivores. It aims to understand the ecological implications of chemotypic variation in sagebrush and its effects on plant interactions.
Plants have evolved an impressive defense system to combat herbivores.
These defenses include morphological structures like spines and secondary metabolites that have toxic, repellent, or antinutritional effects on consumers.
Many plant defenses are constitutively expressed, but some are induced in response to herbivore damage.
Damaged plants emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the environment that may induce defenses in adjacent, undamaged tissue or may be eavesdropped by neighboring pl…
