Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Caterpillar-induced PSF positively affected resistance of wild cabbage to M. brassicae, detectable only after more than two weeks.
- Intervention effect Caterpillar-induced PSF had a neutral to negative effect on resistance of cultivated cabbage.
- Association The caterpillar-induced PSF effect on cultivated cabbage did not differ between soil types.
- Association The negative PSF effect was associated with downregulation of genes in jasmonic acid biosynthesis and downstream signalling.
