SENSING SENSES. “We did an experiment with two climbing bean plants. If you put a single support between them, they compete for it. "What is interesting is the behaviour of the loser: it immediately sensed the other plant had reached the pole and started to find an alternative. This was astonishing and it demonstrates the plants were aware of their physical environment and the behaviour of the other plant. In animals we call this consciousness.” http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-34849374 View in LinkedIn

"NUMEROUS BIOTIC SIGNALS are sensed and modify the phenotype. These include the presence, absence and identity of neighbours, cooperation, mutualism, disturbance, trampling, herbivory, parasitism and space." http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00114-005-0014-9 View in LinkedIn

NUANCED DISCRIMINATION. "Many signals modify the plant phenotype. Many abiotic signals are sensed by plants. For example, humidity, light, minerals, gravity, wind, snow melt, soil structure and composition, etc., and totaling about 20 in number, initiate phenotypic changes. Furthermore these signals are sensed and the intensity, the direction and the length of exposure are finely discriminated." http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00114-005-0014-9 View in LinkedIn

SYMMETRICAL EXPRESSION. "An increasing number of studies from across angiosperms indicate that morphological shifts between radial symmetry and bilateral symmetry are correlated with independent transitions in asymmetric expression of members of the ECE clade of TCP TFs, of which CYCLOIDEA (CYC) was the first characterized member." ( TFs = transcription factors). http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.13198/full View in LinkedIn

FLORAL SYMMETRY GENES. "Here we examine the complexity of GRNs by examining one thread of the floral symmetry pathway: TCP and MYB genes and the petal whorl." (GRN = gene regulatory networks). http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.13198/full View in LinkedIn

FLORAL SYMMETRY DRIVERS. "In addition to position, changes in morphological characteristics such as symmetry in petal shape, presence or absence of trichomes on petals, colour differences among petals, and changes in cell types on petal surfaces can also lead to shifts in floral symmetry." http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.13198/full View in LinkedIn

MULTIPLE PETAL FORMS. "In core eudicots this ultimately results in three petal types: a medially positioned abaxial (ventral) petal, two lateral petals and two adaxial (dorsal) petals. Each of these separate groups (two dorsal petals, two lateral petals, and single ventral petal) can vary in multiple morphological characteristics to result in a floral form with a single dorsoventral plane of symmetry." http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.13198/full View in LinkedIn
