The InteCue project investigates how tomato plants integrate signals from herbivore-induced volatiles and peptides to enhance their defense mechanisms against pests. This research aims to uncover molecular processes that could lead to the development of pest-resistant crops.
Plants are often exposed to infestation by insect herbivores.
How do they defend themselves to grow and reproduce?
We know that plants can perceive volatile cues, emitted by insect infested neighboring plants, to generate faster and stronger defense responses upon subsequent herbivory.
Plants can also sense peptide signals, induced by herbivory, to fight against herbivores.
However, we know close to nothing about whether plants can integrate volatile cues and peptide signals for enhanced herbivo…
