1.13.11.92 physiological function 2-hydroxylinolenic acid, produced by attack-activated alpha-DOX1 activity, participates in defense activation during insect feeding. Attack by Manduca sexta larvae amplifies 2-hydroxylinolenic acid formation at the feeding sites. Manduca sexta larvae perform better on alpha-Dox1-silenced plants than on wildtype plants. Repeated applications of 2-hydroxylinolenic acid to wounds before insect feeding partly amplifies jasmonic acid-controlled defenses and restores the resistance of alpha-Dox1-silenced plants Nicotiana attenuata
