maize plants attacked by lepidopteran larvae emit a volatile mixture that consists mostly of the sesquiterpene olefins, (E)-alpha-bergamotene and (E)-beta-farnesene. These volatiles are produced by the herbivore-induced terpene synthase TPS10 and attract natural enemies to the damaged plants. The TPS10 products (E)-alpha-bergamotene and (E)-beta-farnesene are consistently induced by herbivory, indicating that release of TPS10 volatiles is a defense trait conserved among maize and its wild relatives

physiological function
the enzyme forms the herbivore-induced sesquiterpene volatiles of maize. Females of the parasitoid Cotesia marginiventris learn to exploit the TPS10 sesquiterpenes to locate their lepidopteran hosts after prior exposure to these volatiles in association with hosts. Thus the sesquiterpenes produced by TPS10 can provide a volatile signal for the indirect defense of the plant against herbivore attack

transgenic tobacco plants expressing the enzyme can repel aphids and attract their natural enemies
