Detect thy neighbor: identity recognition at the root level in plants

BJW Chen, HJ During, NPR Anten - Plant Science, 2012 - Elsevier
Some plant species increase root allocation at the expense of reproduction in the presence
of non-self and non-kin neighbors, indicating the capacity of neighbor-identity recognition at …

Plant-microbe-soil interactions in the rhizosphere: an evolutionary perspective

H Lambers, C Mougel, B Jaillard, P Hinsinger - 2009 - Springer
Soils are the product of the activities of plants, which supply organic matter and play a
pivotal role in weathering rocks and minerals. Many plant species have a distinct ecological …

Plant sensing and communication

R Karban - Plant sensing and communication, 2015 - degruyter.com
The news that a flowering weed—mousear cress (Arabidopsis thaliana)—can sense the
particular chewing noise of its most common caterpillar predator and adjust its chemical …

Plant root exudates mediate neighbour recognition and trigger complex behavioural changes

M Semchenko, S Saar, A Lepik - New Phytologist, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Some plant species are able to distinguish between neighbours of different genetic identity
and attempt to pre‐empt resources through root proliferation in the presence of unrelated …

Root placement patterns in allelopathic plant–plant interactions

CY Wang, LL Li, SJ Meiners, CH Kong - New Phytologist, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Plants actively respond to their neighbors by altering root placement patterns. Neighbor‐
modulated root responses involve root detection and interactions mediated by root‐secreted …

Artificial macropores attract crop roots and enhance plant productivity on compacted soils

T Colombi, S Braun, T Keller, A Walter - Science of the Total Environment, 2017 - Elsevier
The structure of compacted soils is characterised by decreased (macro-) porosity, which
leads to increased mechanical impedance and decreased fluid transport rates, resulting in …

What plant roots know?

A Novoplansky - Seminars in cell & developmental biology, 2019 - Elsevier
Despite their paramount role in plant life, the study of roots has been largely neglected until
recently. Here, I shortly describe a few newly-discovered abilities of plants to undergo …

In a green frame of mind: perspectives on the behavioural ecology and cognitive nature of plants

M Gagliano - AoB Plants, 2015 - academic.oup.com
