Kutshanje, iqela lophando likaNjingalwazi uSong Chuankui weLabhoratri yeSizwe yeTea Biology kunye noSetyenziso lweZibonelelo zeYunivesithi yezoLimo yase-Anhui kunye neqela lophando loPhando uSun Xiaoling weZiko loPhando lweTea leChinese Academy yeSayensi yezoLimo ngokudibeneyo lipapashe isihloko esithi “Isityalo. , iSeli kunye nokusiNgqongileyo (i-Impact Factor 7.228)” I-Volatiles ebangelwa yi-Herbivore ichaphazela ukhetho lwenundu ngokwandisaβ-Ukukhutshwa kwe-Ocimene yezityalo zeti ezingabamelwane ", uphononongo lufumanise ukuba ukuguquguquka okubangelwa kukondliwa kwemibungu ye-tea looper kunokukhuthaza ukukhululwa kweβ-ocimene ukusuka kwizityalo zeti ezingabamelwane, ngaloo ndlela ukwandisa izityalo zeti ezingabamelwane.Ukukwazi kwemithi yeti enempilo ukugxotha abantu abadala be-tea looper.Olu phando luza kunceda ukuqonda imisebenzi ye-ikholoji yokuguquguquka kwezityalo kunye nokwandisa ukuqonda okutsha kwendlela yokunxibelelana yonxibelelwano phakathi kwezityalo.

Kwi-co-evolution yexesha elide, izityalo zenze iindlela ezahlukeneyo zokukhusela kunye nezinambuzane.Xa kutyiwa izinambuzane herbivorous, izityalo uya kukhulula iintlobo ngeentlobo iikhompawundi eguquguqukayo, nto leyo kuphela ukudlala indima ngqo okanye ngokungathanga ngqo ukhuselo, kodwa inxaxheba kunxibelelwano ngqo phakathi kwezityalo kunye nezityalo njengemiqondiso imichiza, isebenze impendulo yokhuselo lwezityalo ezingabamelwane.Nangona kukho iingxelo ezininzi malunga nokusebenzisana phakathi kwezinto eziguquguqukayo kunye nezinambuzane, indima yezinto eziguquguqukayo ekunxibelelaneni komqondiso phakathi kwezityalo kunye nendlela ezikhuthaza ngayo ukuxhathisa ayikacaci.

Kolu phononongo, iqela lophando lafumanisa ukuba xa izityalo zeti zondliwa yimibungu yeti looper, zikhupha izinto ezahlukeneyo eziguquguqukayo.Ezi zinto zingaphucula isakhono sokugxotha izityalo ezingabamelwane ngokuchasene nabantu abadala beti (ingakumbi iimazi emva kokukhwelana).Ngokusebenzisa uhlalutyo olongezelelweyo lomgangatho kunye nobungakanani bokuguquguquka okukhutshwe kwizityalo zeti ezikufutshane ezisempilweni, kudityaniswe nohlalutyo lokuziphatha lwe-looper yeti yabantu abadala, kwafunyaniswa ukubaβ-ocilerene idlale indima ebalulekileyo kuyo.Iziphumo zabonisa ukuba isityalo seti sakhululwa (cis)- 3-hexenol, linalool,α-farnesene kunye ne-terpene homologue DMNT inokukhuthaza ukukhululwa kweβ-ocimene kwizityalo ezikufutshane.Iqela lophando liqhubekile ngokusebenzisa imifuniselo engundoqo yokuthintela indlela, edityaniswe neemvavanyo ezithile zokuvezwa okuguquguqukayo, kwaye yafumanisa ukuba ukuguquguquka okukhutshwe yimibungu kunokukhuthaza ukukhululwaβ-ocimene ukusuka kwimithi yeti ekufutshane esempilweni ngokusebenzisa iCa2 + kunye neJA yokubonisa iindlela.Uphononongo luveze indlela entsha yonxibelelwano lwemiqondiso eguqukayo phakathi kwezityalo, enexabiso elibalulekileyo lereferensi kuphuhliso lolawulo lwezinambuzane zeti eluhlaza kunye neendlela ezintsha zolawulo lwezityalo.
