Identification and Characterization of <i>trans</i>-Isopentenyl Diphosphate Synthases Involved in Herbivory-Induced Volatile Terpene Formation in <i>Populus trichocarpa</i>

In response to insect herbivory, poplar releases a blend of volatiles that plays important roles in plant defense. Although the volatile bouquet is highly complex and comprises several classes of compounds, it is dominated by mono- and sesquiterpenes. The most common precursors for mono- and sesquit...
