Inhibition of predator attraction to kairomones by non-host plant volatiles for herbivores: a bypass-trophic signal.
Insect predators and parasitoids exploit attractive chemical signals from lower trophic levels as kairomones to locate their herbivore prey and hosts. We hypothesized that specific chemical cues from prey non-hosts and non-habitats, which are not part of the trophic chain, are also recognized by pre...
