Abstract:Norway spruce (Picea abies) is an economically and ecologically
important tree species that grows across northern and central Europe.
Treating Norway spruce with jasmonate has long-lasting beneficial
effects on tree resistance to damaging pests, such as the European
spruce bark beetle Ips typographus and its fungal associates. The
potential involvement of (epi)genetic mechanisms in this long-lasting
jasmonate-induced resistance (IR) has gained much recent interest, but
remains largely unknown. In this study, w… Show more
