Low red:far-red light ratios reduce the content of major sesquiterpenes in type VI trichomes of <i>Solanum habrochaites</i> and increase plant attractiveness to <i>Tuta absoluta</i> females
Collectively, our results suggest that terpene accumulation in glandular trichomes in S. habrochaites is regulated by light at the transcriptional level and that this regulation could have important consequences for plant resistance to herbivory in plant stands.
