Plants release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in response to herbivory or damage as part of an indirect defence strategy. These broadly defined damage-induced plant volatiles (DIPVs), include herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs). DIPVs elicit defence-related responses in neighbouring plants, which may influence herbivore behaviour. Although DIPVs have been studied in conifers, little is known about how they influence n...

Phytoremediation of contaminated freshwater bodies with rare earth elements (REEs) is a promising nature-based solution, but it is rarely studied. Here, we studied how efficiently willow ( Salix schwerinii: SS ) and cultivar (Klara: KL) purify water and react to three combined doses of REEs. SS and KL were subjected to increasing combined doses of REEs, specifically lanthanum (La) and neodymium (Nd), for 8 weeks in floating tr...
