Rising from the shadows: Selective foraging in model shoot parasitic plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 1118-1127, April 2024.
Abstract Despite being sessile, plants nonetheless forage for resources by modulating their growth. Adaptative foraging in response to changes in resource availability and presence of neighbours has strong implications for performance and fitness. It is an even more pressing issue for parasitic plants, which draw resources directly from other plants ...

Toward Bionic Arthroscopy: A Comprehensive Perspective of Continuum Robotics Principles and Prototypes for the Inception of Arthroscopic Surgery Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2024.
This article explores integrating bionics with continuum robotics to innovate in arthroscopic surgery. Inspired by adaptable organisms like snakes and octopuses, in the study, the challenges and opportunities of implementing continuum robots in arthroscopy are delved into.

Circumnutation of Arabidopsis thaliana inflorescence stems

Biologia plantarum, 2006
Time-lapse monitoring using infrared imaging revealed a distinct change in circumnutatory behaviour of Arabidopsis inflorescence stems by dark treatment, which drastically increased curvature and decreased nutation frequency. Re-irradiation during dark treatment had different effect on the nutation frequency and the curvature, suggesting that radiation

Guidance of circumnutation of climbing bean stems: An ecological exploration [PDF]

, 2017
Abstract In this report we explore the guidance of circumnutation of climbing bean stems under the light of general rho/tau theory, a theory that aims to explain how living organisms guide goal-directed movements ecologically. We present some preliminary results on the control of circumnutation by climbing beans, and explore the ...

Orchid fruit and root movement analyzed using 2D photographs and a bioinformatics pipeline for processing sequential 3D scans

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 12, Issue 1, January-February 2024.
Abstract Premise Most studies of the movement of orchid fruits and roots during plant development have focused on morphological observations; however, further genetic analysis is required to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon.

Root Walker: an automated pipeline for large scale quantification of early root growth responses at high spatial and temporal resolution

The Plant Journal, Volume 117, Issue 2, Page 632-646, January 2024.
SUMMARY Plants are sessile organisms that constantly adapt to their changing environment. The root is exposed to numerous environmental signals ranging from nutrients and water to microbial molecular patterns. These signals can trigger distinct responses including the rapid increase or decrease of root growth.

Noisy Circumnutations Facilitate Self-Organized Shade Avoidance in Sunflowers

Physical Review X
Circumnutations are widespread in plants and typically associated with exploratory movements; however, a quantitative understanding of their role remains elusive.

A device for the continuous measurement of the circumnutation of tendrils

, 1994
A device has been conceived to study the circumnutation of the bean tendrils (Phaseolus vulgaris). A detailed description of the device and preliminary results are presented in this article. The device permits the continuous recording of the tendril circumnutation and also the continuous control of the relative position of an external lateral factor, e.
