TL;DR: Testing the hypothesis that specific terpenes are associated with pest resistance in a Eucalyptus grandis half-sib population found that susceptibility was associated with increased γ-terpinene and α-pinene, whereas reduced susceptibility wasassociated with iso-pinocarveol, which may act to recruit parasitoids or have direct toxic effects.
