Relationship Among Phenolic Contents, Seed Predation, and Physical Seed Traits in Mimosa bimucronata Plants
(Springer, 2009-12-01)
Phenolic contents were compared between Mimosa bimucronata seeds from infested and non-infested fruits to assess induced defense response. By measuring leg length of the bruchid beetle Acanthoscelides schrankiae, we verified ...

Physical environment modulates the behavioral responses induced by chemical stimulation of dorsal periaqueductal gray in mice
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-09-01)
In order to investigate the relationship between behaviors elicited by chemical stimulation of the dorsal periaqueductal gray (dorsal PAG) and spontaneous defensive behaviors to a predator, the excitatory amino acid ...

Inter-regional variation on leaf surface defenses in native and non-native Centaurea solstitialis plants
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-07)
Plant chemical defenses can be qualitative (toxins) to face generalist herbivores and quantitative (digestibility reducers) to specialists. Trichomes can produce chemicals, but also acts as a quantitative defense and in ...
Hiding in Plain Sight: Cuticular Compound Profile Matching Conceals a Larval Tortoise Beetle in its Host Chemical Cloud
(SpringerDordrechtHolanda, 2014)
Proteomic-components provide insights into the defensive secretion in termite workers of the soldierless genus Ruptitermes
(2020-02-20)
Termite soldiers constitute the defensive frontline of the colonies, despite workers also perform such tasks, especially within the Neotropical Apicotermitinae, in which all species are soldierless. Workers of the genus ...
