Plant Volatiles-based Insect Pest Management in Organic Farming (2010, background): “In addition to attracting pollinators, floral volatiles may function in deterring unwanted floral visitors (Omura et al., 2000).”
Start making scents: the challenge of integrating chemistry into pollination ecology (2008, background): “However, floral filters also take chemical forms, ranging from the odor of flowers (Ômura et al., 2000) and their pollen (Willmer & Stone, 1997; Ghazoul, 2001) to the mineral salts (Afik et al.”
Phenotypic selection on floral scent: trade-off between attraction and deterrence? (2011, background): “Functional studies have shown that floral scent mediates a number of different interactions, as it attracts/repels (specific) pollinators, granivores, and herbivores (Baldwin et al. 1997; Dötterl et al. 2006; Huber et al. 2005; Kessler et al. 2008; Ômura et al. 2000; Plepys et al. 2002) and is thus ”
The Challenge of Attracting Pollinators While Evading Floral Herbivores: Patterns of Fragrance Emission in Cirsium arvense and Cirsium repandum (Asteraceae) (2007, background): “Repellent properties of floral volatiles have been reported in studies of interactions between insects and nonhost plants (Gabel et al. 1992; Ômura et al. 2000) but are otherwise infrequently”
