Artificial exposure to herbivore‐induced volatile organic compounds reduces herbivory and modulates gene expression in potato plants

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
These findings provide strong mechanistic evidence for VOCs mediating pest resistance and suggest that exposure to herbivore‐induced, plant‐derived VOCs can enhance pest resistance in potato crops. These results might offer novel information for developing ecologically sustainable plant volatile‐based strategies for boosting protection against pests in

Combined phylogenetic and geographic data can predict plant–pest interactions with high accuracy

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2107-2123, August 2026.
Schematic overview of the study pipeline. Summary Non‐native plant pests can pose major threats to biodiversity, with destructive ecological and economic consequences. The ability to predict future threats would allow limited resources to be concentrated on managing the most serious risks. We built a Bayesian model to predict hosts at risk from Agrilus,
