- Defence mechanisms of Brassicaceae: implications for plant-insect interactions and potential for integrated pest management. A review (2010, background): “They have been recognised as a class of natural pesticides since they exhibit toxic or repellent e ff ects, by which they establish a significant defence mechanism to protect Brassica plants against pests and diseases (Mithen, 1992; Zukalová and Vašák, 2002).”
- Significance of Sulfur Compounds in the Protection of Plants Against Pests and Diseases (2005, background): “…nitrogen (N)- and S-containing secondary compounds (Figure 3), that are produced by higher plants in order to increase their resistance against the unfavorable effects of predators, competitors, and parasites by exhibiting toxic or repellent effects (Mithen, 1992; Wallsgrove et al., 1999).”
- Potentially durable resistance mechanisms in plants to specialised fungal pathogens (2002, background): “In Brassica, breeders have achieved favourable allocation of glucosinolates: high concentration in the leaves and roots which are exposed to pathogens and pests, but low in the seeds of certain cultivars, that are the commodity ( Mithen, 1992 ).”
- Plant-mediated effects in the Brassicaceae on the performance and behaviour of parasitoids (2008, background): “Artificial diets (Agrawal and Kurashige 2003), artificially selected lines (Mithen 1992; Li et al. 2000; Müller and Sieling 2006) or the use of mutant plants that have been modified to emphasise a single trait may help to better understand the relative effect of GS on insect performance, but one…”
- Conserving the efficacy of insecticides against Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep., Plutellidae) (2005, background): “The enzyme, myrosinase, acts as b-thioglucosidase to produce isothiocyanates that may be lethally toxic to certain insects (Mithen, 1992; Vogel et al., 2004).”
