Herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) contribute to attracting the natural enemies of the herbivores and, hence, benefit the plant indirectly. Volatile terpenoids are the major products among the HIPVs from legumes, e.g., lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus) and Medicago truncatula (Leitner et al., 2005).
