Herbivore-induced, indirect plant defences.
Indirect responses are defensive strategies by which plants attract natural enemies of their herbivores that act as plant defending agents. Such defences can be either constitutively expressed or induced by the combined action of mechanical damage and low- or high-molecular-weight elicitors from the attacking herbivore. Here, we focus on two induced indirect defences, namely the de novo product...
متن کاملClimate-induced range overlap among closely related species
Contemporary climate change is causing large shifts in biotic distributions1, which has the potential to bring previously isolated, closely related species into contact2. This has led to concern that hybridization and competition could threaten species persistence3. Here, we use bioclimatic models to show that future range overlap by the end of the century is predicted for only 6.4% of isolated...
متن کاملSpecificity of herbivore-induced plant defences.
In addition to induced direct defence, plants can defend themselves indirectly by improving the effectiveness of enemies of herbivores. Plants can respond to arthropod herbivory with the induction of a blend of volatiles that attracts predators and/or parasitoids of herbivores. Carnivorous arthropods can discriminate between infested plants and mechanically wounded plants, and between plants in...
متن کاملConsistency of Nicotiana attenuata's herbivore- and jasmonate-induced transcriptional responses in the allotetraploid species Nicotiana quadrivalvis and Nicotiana clevelandii.
We examined the consistency of the native diploid Nicotiana attenuata (Na)'s herbivore-induced transcriptional changes in the two allotetraploid natives, Nicotiana clevelandii (Nc) and Nicotiana quadrivalvis (Nq), which are thought to be derived from hybridizations with an ancestral Na. An analysis of nuclear-encoded chloroplast-expressed Gln synthetase gene (ncpGS) sequences found strong simil...
متن کاملNuclear markers confirm taxonomic status and relationships among highly endangered and closely related right whale species.
Right whales (genus: Eubalaena) are among the most endangered mammals, yet their taxonomy and phylogeny have been questioned. A phylogenetic hypothesis based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation recently prompted a taxonomic revision, increasing the number of right whale species to three. We critically evaluated this hypothesis using sequence data from 13 nuclear DNA (nuDNA) loci as well as t...
