Microbial monoterpene transformations—a review [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Isoprene and monoterpenes constitute a significant fraction of new plant biomass. Emission rates into the atmosphere alone are estimated to be over 500 Tg per year. These natural hydrocarbons are mineralized annually in similar quantities. In the atmosphere, abiotic photochemical processes cause lifetimes of minutes to hours.

Update on Monoterpenes from Red Macroalgae: Isolation, Analysis, and Bioactivity
Marine Drugs, 2019 Macroalgae produce a wide range of monoterpenes as secondary metabolites of mevalonate (MVA) and/or methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway (often including haloperoxidase action).

Seasonal measurements of total OH reactivity fluxes, total ozone loss rates and missing emissions from Norway spruce in 2011 [Discussion paper] [PDF]
, 2012 Numerous reactive volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted into the atmosphere by vegetation. Most biogenic VOCs are highly reactive towards the atmosphere's most important oxidant, the hydroxyl (OH) radical.

Monoterpene regulation of Ras and Ras-related protein expression
Journal of Lipid Research, 2003 Monoterpenes, derived primarily from plants, are products of the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway and function as chemical messengers with diverse functions. The biochemical bases for these activities are largely undefined.

Monoterpenes of Salvia leucophylla [PDF]
Current Bioactive Compounds, 2012 The " Salvia phenomenon" is one of the most famous examples of allelopathic interaction between higher plants. The Salvia thickets are surrounded by zones of bare soil ("bare zone", 1-3 m in width), which merge into areas of inhibited grassland ("zone of inhibition") and finally undisturbed grassland at a distance of 3-9 m.

Effects of Nitrogen Fertilization on Monoterpenes of Jack Pine Seedlings and Weight Gain of Jack Pine Budworm (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) [PDF]
, 2017 Nine-month old jack pine (Pinus banksiana) seedlings were grown in a greenhouse under four nitrogen fertilization regimes. Levels of total nitrogen and five monoterpenes in new foliage were measured. Fertilization resulted in four significantly different
