Communication occurs when a sender emits a cue perceived by a receiver that changes the
receiver's behavior. Plants perceive information regarding light, water, other nutrients, touch …

Herbivorous insects represent one of the major threats to sessile plants. To cope with
herbivore challenges, plants have evolved sophisticated defense systems, in which the lipid …

Electrical signals in plants are mediators of long-distance signaling and correlate with plant
movements and responses to stress. These signals are studied with single surface …

The leaves of the carnivorous plant Venus flytrap, Dionaea muscipula (Dionaea) close
rapidly to capture insect prey. The closure response usually requires two successive …

Mechanical stimuli, such as wind, rain, and touch affect plant development, growth, pest
resistance, and ultimately reproductive success. Using water spray to simulate rain, we …

Plants are not just passive living beings that exist in nature. They are complex and highly
adaptable species that react sensitively to environmental forces/stimuli with movement …

Our review is devoted to the analysis of the role of long-distance electrical signals in the
development of the fast systemic physiological responses in higher plants. The …

To survive in the nutrient-poor habitats, carnivorous plants capture small organisms
comprising complex substances not suitable for immediate reuse. The traps of carnivorous …

In environmental conditions, plants are affected by abiotic and biotic stressors which can be
heterogenous. This means that the systemic plant adaptive responses on their actions …

Abstract Background and Aims Anaesthesia for medical purposes was introduced in the
19th century. However, the physiological mode of anaesthetic drug actions on the nervous …
