Classifying Circumnutation in Pea Plants via Supervised Machine Learning [PDF]

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Climbing plants require an external support to grow vertically and enhance light acquisition. Climbers that find a suitable support demonstrate greater performance and fitness than those that remain prostrate.

Conditions for the emergence of circumnutations in plant roots. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The plant root system shows remarkably complex behaviors driven by environmental cues and internal dynamics, whose interplay remains largely unknown. A notable example is circumnutation growth movements, which are growth oscillations from side to side of

Mechanism and Function of Root Circumnutation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Root growth in soil is complex. With limited sensory input, roots must navigate an environment containing heterogeneities such as rocks and compaction. The ability of roots to penetrate soil is crucial for water and nutrient uptake as well as mechanical anchorage.

A deep learning approach to track Arabidopsis seedlings’ circumnutation from time-lapse videos [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2023
Background Circumnutation (Darwin et al., Sci Rep 10(1):1–13, 2000) is the side-to-side movement common among growing plant appendages but the purpose of circumnutation is not always clear.

Can Plants Move Like Animals? A Three-Dimensional Stereovision Analysis of Movement in Plants [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
In this article we adapt a methodology customarily used to investigate movement in animals to study the movement of plants. The targeted movement is circumnutation, a helical organ movement widespread among plants.

Temporal dynamics of plant movement under task constraints [PDF]

open access: yesMovement Ecology
Background Movement time (MT) reflects how organisms adjust their movements to environmental constraints. In climbing plants, successful attachment to external supports depends on the temporal organization of their exploratory movements (i.e ...

Kinematic Evidence of Root-to-Shoot Signaling for the Coding of Support Thickness in Pea Plants [PDF]

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Plants such as climbers characterized by stems or tendrils need to find a potential support (e.g., pole, stick, other plants or trees) to reach greater light exposure. Since the time when Darwin carried out research on climbing plants, several studies on

Ambient temperature regulates root circumnutation in rice through the ethylene pathway: transcriptome analysis reveals key genes involved [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Plant roots are constantly prepared to adjust their growth trajectories to avoid unfavorable environments, and their ability to reorient is particularly crucial for survival.

Circumnutation in the growth of Chara rhizoids

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Chara rhizoids, cylindrical cells growing in their apex, having the capability of positive orthogravitropic response, while growing without any change of position are not ideally straight, but they are characterised by slight and repeating cyclic ...

Ascent and Attachment in Pea Plants: A Matter of Iteration [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Pea plants (Pisum sativum L.) can perceive the presence of potential supports in the environment and flexibly adapt their behavior to clasp them. How pea plants control and perfect this behavior during growth remains unexplored.
