Nanoparticle penetration and transport in living pumpkin plants: in situ subcellular identification [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2009
Background In recent years, the application of nanotechnology in several fields of bioscience and biomedicine has been studied. The use of nanoparticles for the targeted delivery of substances has been given special attention and is of particular ...

Rapid movements in plants [PDF]

Journal of Plant Research, 2021
AbstractPlant movements are generally slow, but some plant species have evolved the ability to move very rapidly at speeds comparable to those of animals. Whereas movement in animals relies on the contraction machinery of muscles, many plant movements use turgor pressure as the primary driving force together with secondarily generated elastic forces ...

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

Animals, 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.

Decision-Making Underlying Support-Searching in Pea Plants

Plants, 2023
Finding a suitable support is a key process in the life history of climbing plants. Those that find a suitable support have greater performance and fitness than those that remain prostrate.

Shapeshifting in the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula): Morphological and biomechanical adaptations and the potential costs of a failed hunting cycle

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The evolutionary roots of carnivory in the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) stem from a defense response to plant injury caused by, e.g., herbivores. Dionaea muscipula aka.

Classifying Circumnutation in Pea Plants via Supervised Machine Learning

Plants, 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.

The cracking of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) cones

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Pine cones show functionally highly resilient, hygroscopically actuated opening and closing movements, which are repeatable and function even in millions of years old, coalified cones.

Quantification of Circadian Movement of Small-Leaved Lime (Tilia cordata Mill.) Saplings With Short Interval Terrestrial Laser Scanning

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The goal of the study was to quantify and identify patterns in circadian movements of small-leaved lime (Tillia cordata) saplings with the help of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS).
