Root-emitted volatile organic compounds: can they mediate belowground plant-plant interactions? (2016, background): “…are also implicated in belowground plant indirect defences because they attract organisms of the third trophic level, such as insect predators (Neveu et al. 2002; Ferry et al. 2007) and entomopathogenic nematodes (van Tol et al. 2001; Boff et al. 2002; Rasmann et al. 2005; Ali et al. 2011).”
PLANT DEFENSE BELOWGROUND AND SPATIOTEMPORAL PROCESSES IN NATURAL VEGETATION (2003, background): “Mycorrhizal fungi may protect plants against root feeders, as well as aboveground herbivores (Newsham et al. 1995, Brown and Gange 2002) and plant roots pro- S pe c ia l Fe at u r e duce unknown signals that attract entomopathogenic nematodes (Van Tol et al. 2001).”
Behavioral ecology of entomopathogenic nematodes (2006, background): “Cues from plants damaged by insect feeding provide more speciWc information about the presence of potential hosts and these chemical cues have been shown to increase attraction and infection by Heterorhabditis megadis (Rasmann et al., 2005; van Tol et al., 2001).”
Herbivore-mediated linkages between aboveground and belowground communities (2003, background): “This latter mechanism has recently been demonstrated for both foliar herbivore (Kessler and Baldwin 2001) and root herbivore (Van Tol et al. 2001) attack.”
The multiple faces of indirect defences and their agents of natural selection (2011, background): “…Drukker, Scutareanu & Sabelis 1995; Du et al. 1998; Halitschke et al. 2000; Kessler & Baldwin 2001), stem borers (Potting, Vet & Dicke 1995; Khan et al. 2008), seed feeders (Steidle, Fischer & Gantert 2005), and root feeders (Van Tol et al. 2001; Rasmann et al. 2005) have been shown to induce VOCs.”
A review of semiochemicals associated with bark beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) pests of coniferous trees: A focus on beetle interactions with other pests and their associates (2013, background): “For instance, alarm, sex and food trail pheromones affect behaviour or physiology of individuals within the same species (van Tol et al., 2001).”
The strigolactone story. (2010, background): “Similar tritrophic interactions have been observed for below-ground parts of plants (37, 50, 129).”
Plant-microbe-soil interactions in the rhizosphere: an evolutionary perspective (2009, background): “Upon attack of roots of Thuja occidentalis by larvae of Otiorhynchus sulcatus (a weevil), these roots release chemicals and thus attract Heterorhabditis megidis, a parasitic nematode, which preys on the weevil larvae (Van Tol et al. 2001).”
Rhizosphere fauna: the functional and structural diversity of intimate interactions of soil fauna with plant roots (2009, unknown): “…defenses, involving communication strategies to interact with soil fauna, soil microorganisms and other plant roots to ward off attack (Huber-Sannwald et al. 1997; Boff et al. 2001; van Tol et al. 2001; Mathesius et al. 2003; Bais et al. 2004, 2006; Rasmann et al. 2005; Dudley and File 2007).”
Plant Volatiles: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives (2006, background): “Volatiles emitted by roots of a coniferous plant Thuja occidentalis upon attack by weevil larvae Otiorhynchus sulcatus was shown to attract the entomopathogenic nematode Heterohabditis megidis (Boff et al., 2001; van Tol et al., 2001).”
Root-Secreted Malic Acid Recruits Beneficial Soil Bacteria1[C][W][OA] (2008, background): “Apart from these studies on volatile distress signaling, there are very few studies (van Tol et al., 2001; Rasmann et al., 2005; Hiltpold and Turlings, 2008) on howplants respond by secreting chemicals in response to herbivore attack to recruit beneficial entomopathogenic nematodes to the…”
Indirect defence via tritrophic interactions. (2008, background): “Journal compilation © New Phytologist (2007) Review50 aerial parts of plants, as roots of Thuja and maize can release VOCs in response to feeding by beetle larvae (van Tol et al., 2001; Rasmann et al., 2005).”
Recruitment of predators and parasitoids by herbivore-injured plants (2004, background): “So far, evidence for plant-produced signals has been limited to interactions between plants and arthropods, but a recent study showed that plants may also recruit nematodes that can infect beetle larvae feeding on the roots of these plants (van Tol et al., 2001).”
