Root exudation is an important process determining plant interactions with the soil
environment. Many studies have linked this process to soil nutrient mobilization. Yet, it …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulate plant growth and development. ROS are kept at
low levels in cells to prevent oxidative damage, allowing them to be effective signaling …

Root exudates play an essential role in hel** plants to cope with abiotic stress. However,
the modulation of root exudation profiles under multiple stress conditions is still poorly …

Brassinosteroids are plant steroid hormones that regulate diverse processes, such as cell
division and cell elongation, through gene regulatory networks that vary in space and time …

Unlike animal behavior, behavior in plants is traditionally assumed to be completely
determined either genetically or environmentally. Under this assumption, plants are usually …

The central nervous system (CNS) underlies memory, perception, decision-making, and
behavior in numerous organisms. However, neural networks have no monopoly on the …

Mycorrhizal fungal networks linking the roots of trees in forests are increasingly recognized
to facilitate inter-tree communication via resource, defense, and kin recognition signaling …

The decade since the publication of the third edition of this volume has been an era of great
progress in biology in general and the plant sciences in particular. This is especially true …

The strigolactones are rhizosphere signaling molecules as well as a new class of plant
hormones with a still increasing number of biological functions being uncovered. Here, we …

In this article, we present a novel class of robots that are able to move by growing and
building their own structure. In particular, taking inspiration by the growing abilities of plant …
