Indirect defence via tritrophic interactions. (2008, background): “Herbivore-induced VOCs can repel herbivores and then serve as direct rather than indirect defences (Dicke & Dijkman, 1992; Birkett et al., 2000; De Moraes et al., 2001; Kessler & Baldwin, 2001; Dugravot & Thibout, 2006).”
Behavior-Modifying Strategies in IPM: Theory and Practice (2009, background): “De Moraes et al. (2001) showed that caterpillars induce volatiles at night from tobacco plants that are repellent to female Heliothis virescens (Fabricius) moths.”
Does anti-parasitoid defense explain host-plant selection by a polyphagous caterpillar? (2003, background): “Consequently, the ecological interactions shaping tactics of host-plant selection have received considerable attention (Jaenike 1990, Bernays and Chapman 1994, Abrahamson and Weis 1997, Dicke 2000).”
Diversity and distribution of floral scent (2006, background): “Representatives of all of the major classes of floral volatiles have been shown to have toxic or deterrent activity against microbes and herbivores (e.g., De Moraes et al., 2001; Friedman et al., 2002; Hammer et al., 2003).”
Pseudomonas fluorescens enhances resistance and natural enemy population in rice plants against leaffolder pest (2008, background): “Similarly, De Moraes et al. (2001) reported the increased predation of bugs on eggs and larvae of tobacco hornworm because of the production of volatiles from infested plants.”
Root-Secreted Malic Acid Recruits Beneficial Soil Bacteria1[C][W][OA] (2008, background): “Wounding of plant tissues by insect feeding triggers the release of well-characterized volatile signals that attract natural enemies of insect herbivores (De Moraes et al., 2001; Kessler and Baldwin, 2001).”
Ontogenetic and spatio-temporal patterns of induced volatiles in Glycine max in the light of the optimal defence hypothesis (2008, background): “15 nocturnally emitted volatiles was found in tobacco: De Moraes et al. (2001) demonstrated that some volatiles were released only at night and that this blend repelled ovipositing moths in search for a host plant.”
The ecology and evolution of induced responses to herbivory and how plants perceive risk (2019, background): “…information to other herbivores indicating that this plant tissue is already colonised by potential competitors and/or is well defended (or poorly defended), which may affect the likelihood of attack by herbivores arriving later (De Moraes et al., 2001; Karban, 2011; Morrell & Kessler, 2017).”
Inducible direct plant defense against insect herbivores: A review (2008, background): “Some phenolics and sesquiterpenes along with other volatiles can repel herbivores from oviposition on host plants (Henzell & Hall, 1974; DeMoraes et al., 2001; Huber et al., 2006).”
Influence of an endophytic fungus on host plant selection by a polyphagous moth via volatile spectrum changes (2008, background): “These herbivore-induced plant volatiles also play a major role in attracting specialized parasitoids, which use these volatiles as cues when searching for their host ( DeMoraes et al. 2001; Faeth and Bultman 2002).”
Plant resistance towards insect herbivores: a dynamic interaction. (2002, background): “…there is evidence that the induced green leaf and other common volatiles emitted by tobacco can deter oviposition by lepidopteran herbivores (De Moraes et al., 2001; Kessler & Baldwin, 2001), although it is not clear whether this is due to the toxicity of these compounds, or the insect wishing…”
