CROSSING SPECIES BARRIERS. "In addition to intra-domain signal molecule-mediated communication it is increasingly evident that signal molecules can traverse the domain divide. Underlying communication strategies are utilised by plants, fungi and bacteria in the rhizosphere." http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11103-015-0417-8 View in LinkedIn

BACTERIAL CHEMICAL COMMUNICATION. "Communication between bacterial cells is reliant upon the synthesis and diffusion of signal molecules that are subsequently perceived by other community members. Upon perception, signal molecules induce changes in gene transcription thereby altering the physiology and activity of the recipient." http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11103-015-0417-8 View in LinkedIn

REPROGRAMMING THE HOST PLANT. "In addition to antibiotic compounds, microbes produce secondary metabolites to alter plant signalling and metabolism in order to receive nutrients. This microbial reprogramming of the plant can alter the composition of root exudates and induce the release of more favourable exudates, which may lead to a selective enrichment of respective microbes in the rhizosphere." https://lnkd.in/dtvNBQb View in LinkedIn

COMPLEX INTEGRATION. "Interactions require communication of many kinds: chemical and physical, competition and coordination. Plant intelligence is a developing quality dependent on the complex integration of qualitative and quantitative changes in communication as the structure continues to change." http://aob.oxfordjournals.org/content/93/4/353.full View in LinkedIn

WOOD WIDE WEB. "Every tree is linked to every other tree underground - the "wood wide web". Through these pathways they talk to each other and then behave in certain ways."

PHLOEM MECHANISM. "The authors integrate recent work on a phenomenon called "cosupression," in which introduced genes can suppress expression of the plant's own genes, with other research on how plants resist viral infections and suggest that information-carrying molecules (likely RNAs) move through the plant in long tubes (phloem) and regulate cell physiology at a distance." http://science.sciencemag.org/content/279/5356/1486 View in LinkedIn
