Interspecific Plant Defenses

Description
Plant cells release a particular combination of volatile secondary metabolites in response to being chewed by a particular insect species. The chemical signature attracts wasps that parasitize the insect.
C A wasp that finds a budworm attacks it and deposits an egg inside of it. When the egg hatches, a larva emerges and begins to eat the bud-worm, which eventually dies.
