• Plastic defence expression in plants (2010, background): “Most VOCs are produced de novo after herbivore damage (Pichersky and Gershenzon 2002; Gershenzon and Dudareva 2007), which, thus, completely changes the olfactory phenotype of a plant and the fauna on and around the induced plant, as far as the animal species considered respond to plant volatiles.”

(2006, background): “Volatile and non-volatile terpenes are implicated in the attraction of both pollinators and predators of herbivores, in protection against photooxidative stress, in mediating thermotolerance, and in direct defense against microbes and insects [1–3].”
• Clonal integration beyond resource sharing: implications for defence signalling and disease transmission in clonal plant networks (2004, background): “In various systems damage-induced volatiles attract natural enemies of the herbivores (such as carnivores or parasitoids) that are causing the damage through feeding (Dicke et al., 1993a; Pichersky and Gershenzon, 2002 ).”
