Caffeoylputrescine-hexenal-mediated nonhost resistance against leafhoppers

Rajinikanth Mohan et al. Trends Plant Sci. 2022 Sep.

Abstract

Despite its critical role in repelling damaging insects, our understanding of nonhost resistance against herbivores remains very limited. Recently, Bai et al. identified a novel caffeoylputrescine-green leaf volatile (GLV) compound in wild tobacco plants that confers nonhost resistance to Empoasca leafhoppers through high-throughput multi-omics analyses.

Keywords: Empoasca decipiens; caffeoylputrescine-green leaf volatile; leafhopper; nonhost resistance; omics.
