CBE Life Sci Educ, 2014 Plants are a huge and diverse group of organisms ranging from microscopic marine phytoplankton to enormous terrestrial trees. Stunning, and yet some of us take plants for granted. In this plant issue of LSE, WWW.Life Sciences Education focuses on a botanical topic that most people, even biologists, do not think about—plant behavior.

‘Feature Detection’ versus ‘Predictive Coding’ Models of Plant Behavior [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 In this article we consider the possibility that plants exhibit anticipatory behavior, a mark of intelligence. If plants are able to anticipate and respond accordingly to varying states of their surroundings, as opposed to merely responding online to ...

Plant behavior: Theoretical and technological advances. [PDF]
Curr Opin PsycholThe widespread disregard for plant behavior is gradually being overcome through more inclusive theoretical approaches and the development of appropriate and advanced technologies. In this paper we review scientific evidence on recent contributions to the study of plants, such as movement and communication as well as potential forms of attention.

Swarming behavior in plant roots.
PLoS ONE, 2012 Interactions between individuals that are guided by simple rules can generate swarming behavior. Swarming behavior has been observed in many groups of organisms, including humans, and recent research has revealed that plants also demonstrate social ...

Plant Signaling, Behavior and Communication
PlantsBeing sessile organisms that need to effectively explore space (above and below ground) and acquire resources through growth, plants must simultaneously consider multiple possibilities and wisely balance the energy they spend on growth with the benefits ...

Cracking the code: a comparative approach to plant communication
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2021 The linguistic behavior of humans is usually considered the point of reference for studying the origin and evolution of language. As commonly defined, language is a form of communication between human beings; many have argued that it is unique to humans ...

Kinematic Evidence of Root-to-Shoot Signaling for the Coding of Support Thickness in Pea Plants
Biology, 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
