Plant Chemical Ecology Finally Gets to its Root(s)

ISI WoS search on 17 January 2014, search terms “root” OR “roots” AND “Journal of Chemical Ecology” (382 records). Records solely reporting on sex pheromones of root pests, root growth effects (of isolated or synthetic compounds) were manually removed .
No records with the above search terms were retrieved from earlier issues. This may have several reasons: JCE 1974–1976 are not indexed in WoS and abstracts are not available for the older issues. However, a quick scan of the JCE issues of that time revealed that in those years the papers focused mainly on sex pheromones and kairomone research.
