Plant-associated CO(2) mediates long-distance host location and foraging behaviour of a root herbivore

Insect herbivores use different cues to locate host plants. The importance of CO(2) in this context is not well understood. We manipulated CO(2) perception in western corn rootworm (WCR) larvae through RNAi and studied how CO(2) perception impacts their interaction with their host plant. The express...
