The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Chemical ecology and conservation biological control (2008, background): “Field data for a possible plant-signaling function of MeSA, MeJA and HA were obtained in a 2004 study conducted in a grape vineyard (James and Grasswitz, 2005).”
Insect attraction to synthetic herbivore‐induced plant volatile‐treated field crops (2011, background): “James and Grasswitz (2005) also found evidence of an elicitor funtion of airborne MeSA, MeJA and HA by placing CRD containing these volatiles in a vineyard, and the dispersed volatiles triggered endogenous HIPV in grapevine plants, resulting in higher numbers of parasitic wasps from the families…”
Behavior-Modifying Strategies in IPM: Theory and Practice (2009, background): “Significantly greater numbers of the parasitoid Anagrus spp. were also found in MeSA-baited blocks (James and Grasswitz, 2005).”
Effects of nitrogen fertilization on insect pests, their parasitoids, plant diseases and volatile organic compounds in Brassica napus (2013, background): “In addition, indole, (3Z)-hexenol, (3Z)-hexenyl acetate, methyl salicylate has been found to attract certain parasitoids, including parasitoids of cruciferous pests (James, 2005; James and Grasswitz, 2005; Kaplan, 2012; Lee, 2010; Williams et al., 2008).”
