Plant Defense against Insect Herbivores (2013, background): “brassicae on leaves of Brassica oleracea (Brussels sprouts) changes the leaf surface chemicals leading to attraction of the egg parasitoid Trichogramma brassicae [43].”
Defence mechanisms of Brassicaceae: implications for plant-insect interactions and potential for integrated pest management. A review (2010, background): “Attracted by herbivory-induced plant volatiles, parasitoids of herbivores perform host searching to lay their eggs in or on them as shown in recent studies (Mattiacci et al., 1994; Takabayashi and Dicke, 1996; Dicke, 1999; Hilker and Meiners, 2002; Fatouros et al., 2005b; Heil, 2008).”
