Herbivore-induced plant volatiles enhance the ability of parasitic wasps to find hosts on a plant

We previously reported that cabbage plants emitted volatiles in response to herbivory by diamondback moth (DBM) larvae and that a cocktail of four induced volatile compounds (n‐heptanal, sabinene, α‐pinene and (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate) attracted Cotesia vestalis, a wasp parasitoid of DBM larvae (Shioji...
