Going belowground: burying anthropomorphic biases on gustation and olfaction
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Chemical signaling underpins behavioral interactions among organisms in the soil. Understanding chemical communication in the soil requires a paradigm shift in methodology and perspectives compared to aboveground ecosystems because olfaction and ...
