Using Chemical Ecology to Enhance Weed Biological Control [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2021
In agricultural systems, chemical ecology and the use of semiochemicals have become critical components of integrated pest management. The categories of semiochemicals that have been used include sex pheromones, aggregation pheromones, and plant volatile

Chemical Ecology of Nematodes

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2022
Nematodes represent the most abundant group of metazoans on earth. They utilize diverse chemicals to interact with con-specific and hetero-specific organisms, and are also impacted by compounds produced by other interacting organisms.

The Chemical Ecology of Benzoxazinoids

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2022
Benzoxazinoids are specialized metabolites that modulate plant physiology and plant interactions with their environment. In this review, we synthesize their multiple functions and ecological relevance.

Alternative transcript splicing regulates UDP-glucosyltransferase-catalyzed detoxification of DIMBOA in the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Herbivorous insects often possess the ability to detoxify chemical defenses from their host plants. The fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda), which feeds principally on maize, detoxifies the maize benzoxazinoid 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3 ...

Influences of chemotype and parental genotype on metabolic fingerprints of tansy plants uncovered by predictive metabolomics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Intraspecific plant chemodiversity shapes plant-environment interactions. Within species, chemotypes can be defined according to variation in dominant specialised metabolites belonging to certain classes.

Going belowground: burying anthropomorphic biases on gustation and olfaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Chemical signaling underpins behavioral interactions among organisms in the soil. Understanding chemical communication in the soil requires a paradigm shift in methodology and perspectives compared to aboveground ecosystems because olfaction and ...
