British and Australian biologists say that if only before, it was speculated that trees could talk love together, but now they have proved it to be true.
>>>Research sheds light on "spring switches" of plants
Biologists at Northern Australia University, in Perth under the guidance of Dr. Monica Gagliano and colleagues at Bristol University, UK, studied this issue.
They used highly sensitive meters to study the acoustic properties of insect whiskers, from which researchers found in corn plants where the roots and roots were flooded with repetition. Repeating the sound like crackling with frequencies up to 220Hertz.
Plants also have their own language to communicate with each other.
When researchers send signals with the same frequency as the roots and roots of the plants, they change in the direction of growth. This study is to confirm the scientific ability test of recorded sound signaling plants and re-send the plant to see how it responds.
Even so, it is the scientists themselves who find their results to be rudimentary and not quite accurate to see them as scientific truths. There should be some more verification experiments of independent groups.
'In the next phase, we try to analyze the differences between properties to create and receive sound signals of plants. Next we will discover the information that has been encoded in these sounds , 'Ms. Gagliano said.
Over the past two decades, scientists have demonstrated that all plants have the ability to 'communicate' with each other by reacting to specific chemical signals and emitting signals themselves. Depending on these signals, they accelerate the flowering, fruit-bearing, ripe fruit, root growth, and stem. They can even produce special volatile compounds, so that they can inform each other that herbivores are approaching.
