Production of secondary metabolites from cell and organ cultures: strategies and approaches for biomass improvement and metabolite accumulation (2014, background): “Secondary metabolites are a diverse group of organic compounds that are produced by plants to facilitate interaction with the biotic environment and establishment of a defense mechanism (Wink 1988; Verpoorte et al. 2002).”
Chemical ecology in coupled human and natural systems: people, manioc, multitrophic interactions and global change (2010, background): “Implications for other crops and agroecosystems Although manioc is the most spectacular example, many other crop plants contain allelochemicals (e.g. Kliebenstein 2009; Osbourn et al. 2003; Wink 1988).”
Biotechnology for the production of plant secondary metabolites (2004, background): “, are examples of the roles of secondary metabolites (Harborne, 1978; Wink, 1988).”
Modes of Action of Herbal Medicines and Plant Secondary Metabolites (2015, background): “Thousands of structurally differing secondary metabolites have apparently evolved during plant development as a means for plants to defend themselves against herbivores and against bacteria, fungi and viruses [21–30].”
Secondary metabolites and plant/environment interactions: a view through Arabidopsis thaliana tinged glasses (2004, background): “The catalogue in vascular plants is at least several hundred thousand secondary metabolites (Wink 1988).”
Involvement and interaction of various signaling compounds on the plant metabolic events during defense response, resistance to stress factors, formation of secondary metabolites and their molecular aspects (2002, unknown): “The last two decades has witnessed an increasing awareness of the functions of some of these compounds for the plant (Rhodes et al., 1994; Wink, 1988), as well as new interest in the biochemistry and molecular biology underlying their synthesis and control (Dixon and Paiva, 1995; Holton and…”
Chemistry of floral rewards: intra- and interspecific variability of nectar and pollen secondary metabolites across taxa (2018, background): “111 Studies on other plant parts reported chemical correlations between leaves and fruits (Wink 1988, 112 Page 5 of 72 Ecological Monographs Palmer-Young et al. Secondary chemistry of nectar and pollen Page 6 Agrawal et al. 2002), leaves and flowers (Kessler and Halitschke 2009, Kessler et al.…”
Influence of water stress on the glucosinolate profile of Brassica oleracea var. italica and the performance of Brevicoryne brassicae and Myzus persicae (2010, background): “Secondary metabolites are an important element of the chemical plant defense against their enemies such as insects and pathogens (Wink, 1988; Jander et al., 2001; Kim et al., 2008).”
