Article Synopsis
- The study examined how cyclamen mites and leaf beetles affect the volatile emissions of two strawberry cultivars (Polka and Honeoye).
- Damage from cyclamen mites increased the emission of green leaf volatiles and methyl salicylate, while leaf beetles boosted emissions of various terpenes and a homoterpene.
- Despite these changes in volatile profiles, predatory mites were not attracted to the herbivore-damaged plants, indicating that the emitted volatiles do not lure these predators.
