The terpene composition and chemodiversity of Tanacetum vulgare differ intraspecifically on a spatial and temporal scale, whereby the differences largely depend on the investigated component of chemodiversity.

Steroidal glycoside diversity among organs across ontogeny in relation to candidate gene expression in two Solanum dulcamara chemotypes.

We investigated the secretory structures and chemical composition of Baccharis platypoda inflorescences, revealing similarities between female and male plants and highlighting the presence of phenolic compounds as natural defense mechanisms against high solar radiation in rocky outcrop environments.

The disparate ecological interactions of different plant organs drive chemodiversity, with fruits, leaves, and roots differentially contributing to specialized metabolite richness and composition on spatial and ontogenetic scales.

This study reports the discovery and functional characterization of PvKSL1, a previously unrecognized class I diterpene synthase from switchgrass.

The flowers of African and Asian Gynandropsis gynandra accessions differ in fragrance and epidermal cell morphology (i.e., papillae).

Study of Cycas cone VOC geographic variation revealed a geographic match of the previously identified genetic boundary with fruit-scented cone volatiles, which has implications for the pollination mechanism in this genus.

The study revealed phytochemical and genetic variability among and within wild hop populations in Kosovo, offering valuable insights for conservation and future breeding efforts.

Molecular, phenotypic, and ecological data indicate interspecific gene flow between arboreal species from the genus Cenostigma in the Caatinga dry forest, contributing to the systematic complexity of the group.

Pyrrolizidine alkaloid composition in the invasive plant Senecio pterophorus is coherent with a pattern of adaptive differentiation in response to aridity, as shown in an environmental gradient in the native range and across three cross-continental introductions, under natural and common garden conditions, by accounting for the population neutral genetic structure.

Our study shows that elevation can play an important role in shaping phytochemical diversity, endemism and composition within plant species and suggests that rapid shifts in abiotic and biotic environments may alter the plant metabolome.

We designed an experiment to test the effects of intraspecific plant chemodiversity at plant and plot level on plant performance, and showed that chemodiversity significantly shapes plant growth and reproductive outputs, with most pronounced interactions between chemotype and plot-level chemotype richness on reproductive traits..

Root exudates of commercial and ancestral cereals inhibit black-grass and are more consistent inhibitors than application of their constituent allelochemicals.

Combining NMR– and LC–HRMS–based metabolomics reveals that root and leaf metabolic changes in boxwood predated by box–tree moth occur at the same density of predation for both central and specialized metabolisms.

This study investigated the organ-specific metabolic response of black poplar to feeding by generalist Lymantria dispar caterpillars using targeted and non-targeted metabolomics.

Herbivore-induced plant volatiles differ between aboveground leaves and belowground roots both within and among plant species in the Cucurbitaceae, and these differences are correlated with plant domestication and herbivore coexistence history, but not phylogenetic relatedness.

Novel cardenolide defences co-vary with other defences among leaves of Erysimum cheiranthoides, but while caterpillars avoid well-defended leaves, cardenolides alone cannot explain herbivore behaviour.

Natural variation-based genetic screen in rice identified Os10g0400500 as the main biosynthetic gene of isopentylamine, a defence chemical against brown planthoppers.

Diversifying the crop volatile organic compound profile can alter pest orientation: flea beetles were less attracted to chemical cues of the cabbage–faba bean mix than to those from cabbage alone, while diamondback moths remained equally attracted to both cues.

Tissue-specific changes in terpenoid patterns in tansy are induced by simulated induction of systemic acquired resistance using pipercolic acid.

Plant maternal effects and growth environment, rather than terpenoid chemotype, determine the leaf microbial community of Tanacetum vulgare, but specific terpenoids are correlated with the abundance of certain bacteria.

Plant metabolites shape bacterial biodiversity in Populus nigra wood and shoot tips.

Leaf wax compounds of Eucalyptus modulate the germination and infection of the leaf blight pathogen Teratosphaeria destructans.
