Concurrent induction of jasmonic acid and salicylic acid pathways produced leaf composition changes distinct from either pathway alone.
Hormone-induced changes in leaf composition altered litter mass loss rates in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, with jasmonic acid pathway induction causing the strongest inhibition, salicylic acid pathway induction the weakest inhibition, and combined induction intermediate inhibition.
Induction of the jasmonic acid pathway caused substantial changes among dosage-dependent ellagitannins and reduced leaf nitrogen.
Treating young Alnus rubra trees with methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid triggered shifts in leaf secondary metabolite composition and nutrient reallocation among plant tissues.
