Virus-induced plant volatiles promote virus acquisition and transmission by insect vectors

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Xuefei Chang and collaborators from the Plant Health and Medicine, Qingdao Agricultural University, Qingdao, China have published the paper: Virus-Induced Plant Volatiles Promote Virus Acquisition and Transmission by Insect Vectors, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors hypothesized that EBC and 2-heptanol mediate the feeding and plant odor preference of the insect vector N. virescens, and consequently facilitate RDV acquisition and transmission by N. virescens. The authors show that two rice VOCs induced by RDV infection mediated the olfactory behavior of vector N. virescens insects in different manners: EBC was attractive to . . .
