Some, but not all, plants emit isoprene. Emission of the related monoterpenes is more universal among plants, but the amount of isoprene emitted from plants dominates the biosphere-atmosphere hydrocarbon exchange. The emission of isoprene from plants affects atmospheric chemistry. Isoprene
Is it useful to ask why plants emit isoprene?
