The results presented in this article reveal the existence of two endogenous dhurrin turnover pathways in sorghum, identify genes putatively involved in these transformations and show thatdhurrin in addition to its insect deterrent properties may serve as a storage form of reduced nitrogen.

Sinigrin most likely contributes to the larval mortality observed, however, it is found that any effect of sinigrin on oviposition by P. virginiensis females is not observed, and further research needs to be done on non-glucosinolate contact cues, and volatile signals that may induce P.irginiensis ovipposition.
