Host plant use and possibly defensive horns in Trichochermes magna (Psilidae: Homoptera)
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 1998)
DOTAP, a lipidic transfection reagent, triggers Arabidopsis plant defense responses
(Springer, 2019-02)
Main conclusion: DOTAP triggers Arabidopsis thaliana immunity and by priming the defense response is able to reduce bacterial pathogen attack. DOTAP is a cationic lipid widely used as a liposomal transfection reagent and ...
Epichloë Fungal Endophytes and Plant Defenses: Not Just Alkaloids
(Elsevier Science London, 2017-11)
Although the role of fungal alkaloids in protecting grasses associated with Epichloë fungal endophytes has been extensively documented, the effects of the symbiont on the host plant's immune responses have received little ...
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 ...
Interaction Effect between Herbivory and Plant Fertilization on Extrafloral Nectar Production and on Seed Traits: An Experimental Study with Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae)
(2016-08-01)
It is known that the release of volatile chemicals by many plants can attract the natural enemies of herbivorous insects. Such indirect interactions are likely when plants produce nectar from their extrafloral nectaries, ...
Induction of defensive response in Eucalyptus globulus plants and its persistence in vegetative propagation
(2013)
The expression of defensive compounds derived from secondary metabolism in plants of Eucalyptus globulus Labill, and the persistence of these in vegetative propagation was evaluated by gas chromatography with flame ionization ...
Current Knowledge And Future Research Perspectives On Cassava (manihot Esculenta Crantz) Chemical Defenses: An Agroecological View
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTDOxford, 2016)
Inter-regional variation on leaf surface defenses in native and non-native Centaurea solstitialis plants
(Elsevier, 2015)
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 ...
Soybean defense induction to Spodoptera cosmioides herbivory is dependent on plant genotype and leaf position
(2018-02-01)
Plants have evolved a diverse array of defensive mechanisms against biotic and abiotic stresses, which can be either constitutive or inducible. Variation in plant-intrinsic factors such as the genotype and the leaf position ...
