Hydroxylated monoterpenes mimic bacterial attack to trigger jasmonate-dependent self-amplifying immunity in tomato

This study shows hydroxylated monoterpenes (HMTPs) mimic bacterial attack, triggering jasmonate-dependent immunity in tomato through self-amplifying signaling loops.

Loss of tomato geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase 2 increases monoterpenoid levels and enhances immune responses to bacterial infection

This study shows that loss of SlG2 in tomato increases monoterpenoid levels and enhances resistance to bacterial infection through elevated salicylic acid.

Signaling mechanisms and agricultural applications of (Z)-3-Hexenyl Butyrate-mediated stomatal closure

This study identifies (Z)-3-hexenyl butyrate as a natural inducer of stomatal closure and plant immunity, showing its efficacy in reducing water stress and pathogen infection in crops.
