Feb 15, 2023 · Main conclusion Specific sound patterns can affect plant development. Abstract Plants are responsive to environmental stimuli such as sound. However, little is known about their sensory apparatus, mechanisms, and signaling pathways triggered by these stimuli. Thus, it is important to understand the effect of sounds on plants and their technological potential. This review addresses the effects ...

One of the most fascinating forms of plant communication occurs through mycorrhizal networks. These networks are formed by the mutualistic relationship between plants and mycorrhizal fungi. Fungal networks connect plant roots and allow for the exchange of nutrients, water, and even information. Plants can send signals through these underground ...
Aug 1, 2022 · Evidences showing biological significance of sound in plants. (a) Root detects and bends towards flowing water sound. (b) Flower produces sweeter nectar perceiving bee buzz to increase the chances of pollination. (c) Facilitates echolocation of bat in return for getting fertilizer.
Aug 1, 2019 · Specifically, certain adaptations evolved to reflect loud and distinct echoes in response to the echolocation signals of bats. There are many plant parts that produce distinct echoes, which could be used by echolocating bats in order to detect them (even if they did not specifically evolve for that purpose [37, 38]).

Jun 23, 2016 · The advantages are: (1) VOC signals are more durable, as chemicals stay in the environment for longer; (2) signals spread in the environment, thus evoking systemic resistance in surrounding plants; and (3) several of these VOCs also attract the carnivorous enemies of the attacking herbivore ( Dicke, 2009). Despite these advantages there are a few major drawbacks of VOC signals–: (1) the ...

Feb 29, 2024 · This results in the emission of broadband, mainly high pitched, acoustic signals whose frequencies vary among plants (Cochard et al., 2008; Savi et al., 2015). For instance, tomato and tobacco plants release airborne ultrasonic sounds at frequencies ranging from 20 to 150 kHz in response to drought as well as wounding and pathogen infection (Khait et al ., 2023 ).

Jun 1, 2024 · The hypothesis that sounds produced by plants are informative for insects feeding on stressed plants, or even for neighboring plants, is attractive but still purely speculative to date. A recent study and related commentaries have raised new interest in the phenomenon of ultrasonic sound production by plants exposed to stress, especially drought.
