Fungi reduce preference and performance of insect herbivores on challenged plants

Using sid2-1 plants, we found that SA accumulation is required for the suppression of insect-induced defences, but we have previously shown that the majority of egg-induced genes

Black bars indicate distal leaves of plants treated with egg

For instance, in many biological pest control models, the plant compartment is not present, even if it is well known that plants have developed many defenses strategies against
