Electrical signalling plays a pivotal role in how plants perceive and respond to their environment. Rapid electrical impulses, including action potentials (APs) and slower variation potentials (VPs), ...
Using newly generated 'optogenetic' tobacco plants, research teams have investigated how plants process external signals. When it comes to survival, plants have a huge disadvantage compared to many ...

Century-old mystery of plant communication solved: Plants signal stress through negative pressure mechanisms
Imagine if a plant in a farmer's field could warn a grower that it needs water? Or if a farmer could signal to plants that dry weather lies ahead, thereby prompting the plants to conserve water? It ...
Structural and biochemical insights from KAUST researchers are revealing the dynamic mechanisms that govern strigolactone signaling in plants. © 2025 KAUST. Plants ...
New research has found when plant leaves physically touch each other, they seem to form a biological signalling network to warn each other about the upcoming stress. This can boost their resilience to ...
