• Practical approaches to plant volatile analysis. (2006, background): “These volatiles can act as direct defense compounds (Andersen et al., 1994; De Moraes et al., 2001) or play a role in indirect defense by attracting natural enemies preying upon or parasitizing herbivores (Dicke et al., 2003; Kessler and Baldwin, 2001; Rasmann et al., 2005; Turlings et al., 1995).”
• Influence of an endophytic fungus on host plant selection by a polyphagous moth via volatile spectrum changes (2008, background): “On the other hand, larvae feeding on infected plants have to cope with a low nutritional quality of the food ingested, which results from changes in the ratio of phytosterols to other secondary metabolites (Dugassa-Gobena et al. 1998; Raps and Vidal 1998; Jallow et al.”
• Communication in Plants (2006, background): “For instance, plant roots attacked by insect predators release volatiles which then attract particular species of nematodes that kill these predators (Rasmann et al. 2005).”
• Direct and indirect root defences of milkweed (Asclepias syriaca): trophic cascades, trade‐offs and novel methods for studying subterranean herbivory (2011, methodology): “megidis nematodes that were attracted to volatiles emitted by damaged corn roots (Rasmann et al. 2005; Degenhardt et al. 2009).”
• Plant Defense Chemicals against Insect Pests (2020, background): “by maize roots in response to western corn rootworm damage, therefore, attracts the nematodes to infiltrate the rootworm larvae and kill them, leading to control of the rootworm and less damage to the plant [66].”
• Plant defense against herbivores: chemical aspects. (2012, background): “maize roots (101), although the distribution of VOCs in soil is strongly limited owing to their adsorption to certain soil particles such as clay.”
