Magnetoreception in Microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2020
Magnetoreception is the sense whereby organisms geolocate and navigate in response to the Earth's magnetic field lines. For decades, magnetotactic bacteria have been the only known magnetoreceptive microorganisms. The magnetotactic behaviour of these aquatic prokaryotes is due to the biomineralization of magnetic crystals.

Magnetoreception in plants

Journal of Plant Research, 2005
This article reviews phenomena of magnetoreception in plants and provides a survey of the relevant literature over the past 80 years. Plants react in a multitude of ways to geomagnetic fields-strong continuous fields as well as alternating magnetic fields.

Magnetoreception

BioEssays, 2006
The vector of the geomagnetic field provides animals with directional information, while intensity and/or inclination provide them with positional information. For magnetoreception, two hypotheses are currently discussed: one proposing magnetite-based mechanisms, the other suggesting radical pair processes involving photopigments.

Magnetite-based magnetoreception

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2001
Orientation, navigation, and homing are critical traits expressed by organisms ranging from bacteria through higher vertebrates. Sensory systems that aid such behavior have provided key selective advantages to these groups over the past 4 billion years, and are highly evolved; magnetoreception is no exception.

Magnetoreception in Mammals

2020
In comparison to birds, magnetoreception in mammals has been understudied. This negligence has historical and methodological causes. Paradigms that have been applied in the study of magnetoreception in mammals (particularly, and among others, spontaneous or conditioned nest-building assay, magnetic alignment, maze studies and direction choice tests ...

Magnetoreception in Honeybees

Science, 1994
Magnetoreception by honeybees ( Apis mellifera ) is demonstrated by such activities as comb building and homing orientation, which are affected by the geomagnetic field. In other magnetoreceptive species, iron oxide crystals in the form of magnetite have been shown to be necessary for primary detection of magnetic ...

Magnetic particle-mediated magnetoreception [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society Interface, 2015
Behavioural studies underpin the weight of experimental evidence for the existence of a magnetic sense in animals. In contrast, studies aimed at understanding the mechanistic basis of magnetoreception by determining the anatomical location, structure and function of sensory cells have been inconclusive. In this review, studies attempting to demonstrate
