Development and Validation of a SPME ‐GC‐MS Method for In situ Passive Sampling of Root Volatiles from Glasshouse‐Grown Broccoli Plants Undergoing Below‐Ground Herbivory by Larvae of Cabbage Root Fly, Delia radicum L

ConclusionThis study describes a new method for non‐invasive passive sampling of volatiles in situ from intact and insect damaged roots using SPME. The method is highly suitable for remote sampling and has potential for wide application in chemical ecology/root/soil research. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
