- Abstract
Simple Summary: According to recent research, insect herbivory can be positively and negatively regulated by ET biosynthesis and perception. This review explores the defence mechanisms of plants against insect herbivory, including biosynthesis and signal transduction of ET. Furthermore, it discusses the role of ET in triggering defences against herbivory, the ET interaction with other phytohormones, and the external application of ET stimulation. Plants have evolved to establish insect herbivory defences by modulating their metabolism, growth, and development. Precise networks of phytohormones are essential to induce those herbivory defences. Gaseous phytohormone ET plays an important role in forming herbivory defences. Its role in insect herbivory is not fully understood, but previous studies have shown that it can both positively and negatively regulate herbivory. This review presents recent findings on crosstalk between ET and other phytohormones in herbivory responses. Additionally, the use of exogenous ETH treatment to induce ET in response to herbivory is discussed.
