Ready for examination with @JDBlande from @UniEastFinland the PhD thesis of Yang Liu of @GeoHelsinkiUni @helsinkiuni. The findings of biogenic volatile organic compounds from East African ecosystems are rare in atmospheric sciences. @FMIclimate @heidiphellen @Yang19209175

What a pleasure to follow the PhD defence of @JRieksta with excellent opponents Andrea Clavijo McCormick and @JDBlande. Interesting discussions about volatile defences related to insect herbivory and climate change in the Arctic. Congratulations, Jolanta!

@Toby_Bruce @Martinplantecol Indeed, we had slightly different expectations for this study. From our experience, Plutella xylostella tends to make clear choices. The challenge can be to work out why. Good to work with the Maffei lab to work out a bit more about plant responses to chemical cues

Great new paper by James Blandes' group on plant responses to VOCSW... Exposure to (Z)-11-hexadecenal [(Z)-11-16:Ald] increases Brassica nigra susceptibility to subsequent herbivory disq.us/t/3yklx8n

@Martinplantecol Thanks for your interest @Martinplantecol. Indeed we had some slightly different hypotheses. Fortunately, Agnès Brosset was able to visit the Maffei lab to look at the system in more detail. It was a collaboration that we had planned for some time - maybe we will need a sequel

Everybody uses membrane depolarization and ROS production as markers of defence induction and now the James Blande @JDBlande Massimo Maffei & co say "increased susceptibility"... doi.org/10.1038/s41598… Seems like their Plutella larvae didn´t read the literature 🤔🤨

@helena_ruhanen Ha! They are super-sized turnips. Quite the harvest you got, but not sure how tasty they would have been

Today Julia Parsons had a great MSc thesis seminar about "Effects of mixed cropping to parasitoid wasps of Plutella xylostella". I have co-supervised her with my PhD supervisor James Blande. @JDBlande There are some field work memories in comments.
