Pistacia palaestina hosts several Fordini gall-forming aphid species, which manipulate its anatomy and metabolism, creating galls that provide nutrients protection. This study compared the extended metabolic profiles of P. leaves induced by Baizongia pistaciae, Paracletus cimiciformis, Geoica spp. GC–MS analysis ethyl acetate (EtOAc) methanol (MeOH) extracts revealed a high abundance shikimic acid quinic isomers, along with diverse hydrocarbons, lipids, terpenoids, phenolics, carbohydrates, each showing distinct distributions across gall types. cimiciformis closely resembled intact leaves, exhibiting limited disruption. In contrast, larger, more complex underwent profound modifications. These aphids host leading to triterpenoid phenolics accumulation, likely fortifies structure enhances chemical defense. The considerable variation among individual trees suggests specific plant templates significantly influence profile galls.
