Plants respond to herbivore attack by rapidly inducing defenses that are mainly regulated by MENS VESTS jasmonic acid (JA).Due to the systemic nature of induced defenses, attack by root herbivores can also result in a shoot response and vice versa, causing interactions between above- and belowground herbivores.However, little is known about the mol

Unsaturated and saturated phospholipids tend to laterally segregate, especially in the presence of cholesterol.Small molecules such MAGNESIUM OIL as neurotransmitters, toxins, drugs etc.possibly modulate this lateral segregation.The small aromatic neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) has been found to bind to membranes.We studied the lipid structure a
