Abstract

Plants synthesize and emit a large range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that play important roles in their interactions with the environment, from attracting pollinators and seed dispersers to protectants such as repellants and pathogen inhibitors. As such, the development of techniques for headspace collection of volatiles in combination with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) has an important impact on our understanding of the biosynthesis of plant VOCs. Furthermore, knowledge of the plant VOCs can be valuable in relation to plant breeding for improving fruit flavor or enhancing resistance to insects or pathogens. This chapter describes a reliable method for extracting volatile compounds by headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME), and separate and detect them by GC-MS.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 May 2018.
All research outputs
#20,742,744
of 23,344,526 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#10,114
of 13,338 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#380,340
of 444,166 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#1,194
of 1,502 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,344,526 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,338 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 444,166 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,502 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
