Pre-Exposure to Volatile β-Ocimene Enhances Tomato Antiherbivore Resistance Against Polyphagous Lepidopteran Pest Spodoptera litura (Fabricius)
Herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) are well recognized for their ability to recruit natural enemies of insect herbivores; however, their function in priming plant anti-herbivore defenses remains poorly elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that volatile exposure to a commercial β-ocimene isomer mixture (hereinafter r...
