Potted poplar [Populus .times. euramericana] ramets showed increased concentrations and rates of synthesis of phenolic compounds within 52 h of having 7% of their leaf area removed by tearing, as did undamaged plants sharing the same enclosure. Damaged sugar maple [Acer saccharum] seedlings responded in a manner similar to that of the damaged poplars. Nearby undamaged maples had increased levels of phenolics and hydrolyzable and condensed tannins within 36 h, but exhibited no change in rates of synthesis. An airborne cue originating in damaged tissues may stimulate biochemical changes in neighboring plants that could influence the feeding and growth of phytophagous insects.
