Abstract
Ethylene emission from excised and intact American basswood tissue was increased after seedlings were infested with the bud-feeding herbivore,Thrips calcaratus. Gas chromatographic analysis showed that thrips-infested tissue produced significantly more ethylene than mechanically damaged or control tissue. The possibility that thrips feeding enhances ethylene-mediated stress signals is discussed.Entities:
