Hagen's gland morphology and chemical content analysis for three species of parasitic wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae).

abstract：:In crop plants, both mechanical damage and insect attack trigger rapid changes in gene transcription. We investigated whether insect herbivory differs from a general wound response, and if so, is the induction specific to the pest/host plant interaction?
