New paper in Plant Physiology! 🌿 AtCXE12 converts the green leaf volatile (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate to (Z)-3-hexenol in Arabidopsis — a key step in volatile processing. Honored to have co-authored this with the late Jim Tumlinson, whose work continues to inspire.

The carboxylesterase AtCXE12 converts volatile (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate to (Z)-3-hexenol in Arabidopsis leaves
A carboxylesterase hydrolyzes the green leaf volatile (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate in Arabidopsis leaves, and similar activity in leaf extracts from several other

Happy Friday, Utopians! Take a gander at our neat paper just published in PCE! 🌱🐛💨 Herbivory on larger leaves = higher plant-level volatile emissions. Generalist herbivores preferentially feed on larger leaves. Interesting implications for environmental signalling!

Leaf Size Determines Damage‐ and Herbivore‐Induced Volatile Emissions in Maize
The size of damaged leaves is the determinant factor shaping volatile emission levels in maize seedlings. Generalist herbivores preferentially feed on leaves that emit the most volatiles, with no app...

For my first foray into the utopia that is bluesky, I am happy to share our new preprint that shows within-plant spatiotemporal damage patterns have a major impact on induced volatile emissions, mediated by the size of damaged leaves!🌿🐛

Leaf size determines damage- and herbivore-induced volatile emissions in maize
Stress-induced plant volatiles play an important role in mediating ecological interactions between plants and their environment. The timing and location of the inflicted damage is known to influence t...
