Volatile Organic Compounds Emission from Betula verrucosa under Drought Stress
Abstract
In the nature, plants are under a multitude of different stress factors. In response to biotic or abiotic stresses plant elicited biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC). Plants emission patterns change both quantitatively and qualitatively as well in riposte to damage by biotic or abiotic stress. In the present work we focus our study to the emission of volatile organic compounds from Betula verrucosa under drought stress. Solid-phase micro extraction (SPME) technique have been used for trapping of the BVOC followed by GC-MS desorption. The results have been show that drought induced a high emission of lipoxygenase pathway products.
