We investigated the VOC emissions of 241 cork oak seedlings from ten provenances. The northern provenances tended to develop more sclerophyllous leaves with higher emission rates and lower photosynthesis rates than the southern populations. Independently of this, the composition of emissions varied discontinuously according to three distinct chemotypes,

A computational framework to characterize and compare the tonal repertoires of toothed whales
Abstract Toothed whales, despite being one of the most acoustically specialized lineages of vertebrates, lack detailed vocal repertoire characterizations comparable to those of songbirds and primates. Current descriptions often lack standardization, limiting interspecies and intraspecies comparisons critical for understanding the contribution of ...

Tomato Defenses Under Stress: The Impact of Salinity on Direct Defenses Against Insect Herbivores
ABSTRACT Abiotic stressors, such as salt stress, can reduce crop productivity, and when combined with biotic pressures, such as insect herbivory, can exacerbate yield losses. However, salinity‐induced changes to plant quality and defenses can in turn affect insect herbivores feeding on plants.
