This project aims to uncover the signals that plants use to communicate between leaves and roots in response to insect attacks. By studying the plant Nicotiana attenuata, it seeks to enhance understanding of root involvement in plant defense mechanisms.
The capacity of plants to withstand insect attack is of crucial importance for their fitness.
Consequently, plants have developed intricate strategies to fend off herbivores and compensate for the negative impact of leaf-removal.
Phytohormones, are responsible for many of these effects and are therefore widely recognized as key messengers in plant immunity.
While the changes in leaves upon herbivore attack are well understood, it is becoming increasingly clear that the plant’s reaction involves…
