Conifer resin ducts produces bicyclic monoterpenes such as a-pinene and b-pinene, monocyclic terpenes like limonene and terpinolene, and tricyclic sesquiterpenes, including longifolene, caryophyllene, and d-cadinene, as well as resin acids, which are released immediately upon damage by herbivores

The specialist caterpillars of the monarch butterfly

(Danaus plexippus) are insensitive to the terpenoid toxins. They feed on milkweed leaves and retain the cardenolides. As a result, most insectivorous birds quickly learn to avoid eating monarch caterpillars and adult monarch butterflies.

One plant produced sesquiterpene, (E)‐β‐farnesene (EBF), has been considered a potential defense against aphids, since its emission by plants causes aphids to drop off the plant or depart from the feeding site.
