Electrome alterations in a plant-pathogen system: Toward early diagnosis

TITLE Electrome alterations in a plant-pathogen system: Toward early diagnosis ABSTRACT This work aimed to verify the existence of patterns on the electrophysiological systemic responses of tomato plants inoculated with a pathogenic fungus in an environment with controlled light and temperature. Electrical signalling was measured before and after inoculation in the same plants, and data…

Yes, Plants Do Have Memory

TITLE Yes, Plants Do Have Memory ABSTRACT It is time to recognize the existence of plant memory, a phenomenon that allows plants to store and recall information from previous events and then change their responses to future stressful conditions. Although many recent publications have addressed this topic and concluded about plant memory using either classical…

Fruit Herbivory Alters Plant Electrome: Evidence for Fruit-Shoot Long-Distance Electrical Signaling in Tomato Plants

TITLE Fruit Herbivory Alters Plant Electrome: Evidence for Fruit-Shoot Long-Distance Electrical Signaling in Tomato Plants ABSTRACT The electrical activity of tomato plants subjected to fruit herbivory was investigated. The study aimed to test the hypothesis that tomato fruits transmit long-distance electrical signals to the shoot when subjected to herbivory. For such, time series classification by…

Detection of Different Hosts From a Distance Alters the Behaviour and Bioelectrical Activity of Cuscuta racemosa

TITLE Detection of Different Hosts From a Distance Alters the Behaviour and Bioelectrical Activity of Cuscuta racemosa ABSTRACT In our study, we investigated some physiological and ecological aspects of the life of Cuscuta racemosa Mart. (Convolvulaceae) plants with the hypothesis that they recognise different hosts at a distance from them, and they change their survival…
