The paper shows that intact maize plants release induced volatiles earlier than wounded neighbors, triggered by green leaf volatiles from the wounded plants.

The paper develops a mathematical model to quantify biological response dynamics, revealing novel patterns in plant volatile signalling and demonstrating its applicability across species.

The paper studies how synthetic communities of maize root bacteria interact to alter benzoxazinoid metabolization, leading to increased community tolerance and alternative degradation products.

The paper shows that low R:FR light increases HIPV emissions in maize plants exposed to HIPVs from neighbors, independent of emitter light conditions.

This study examines how chemical stressors affect microbiomes across different food chain components, finding component-specific responses and shifts in microbial composition and stability.

This study shows that maize plants suppress CLE1E9 signaling to enhance volatile release in response to herbivore-induced HAC, shaping multitrophic interactions.

The paper shows that larger leaves in maize emit more volatiles when damaged, and herbivores prefer larger leaves, increasing volatile emissions without growth benefits.

This study characterizes root sesquiterpene emissions from Centaurea stoebe and shows they have neutral to positive effects on sympatric plant germination and growth.
