Have the ability to identify relatives of plants

Have the ability to identify relatives of plants

Has always been controversial social research on plant still very young, many questions still unanswered. However, this study may change the way people look at the plant world, to enhance the dwindling arable land on Earth offers a new way to yield. Biologist Susan Dudley of McMaster University, said: "When I'm in school, when the researchers believe that the ability of some plants to obtain resources above or below the other plants, but adidas outlet they nike free Quedui world of plants ignore the whole social situation. In the eyes focus of this issue, I was surprised to find that plants also have a social nature. Since then, we found more things relating to. "published louis vuitton uk in November in the book" American Journal of Botany, "a research paper, Dudley described the genus Impatiens (a common flowering plant) in the presence of relatives around how the consumption and less energy than burberry sale normal conditions for root growth . If encountered in the genetics of Impatiens unrelated plants, their roots will grow as fast as possible. To identify their loved ones in this way is an example of kin recognition ability. In the animal world, this phenomenon is widespread, kin recognition is a precursor to animal, they will help their family, not only considered their own. Dudley also has relatives that the ability to identify plants. Clearly, this is a controversial idea, relating to the controversy also reflects social study of plants has been so far. Help increase agricultural production? Dudley, 80 gucci shoes years studying the last century, the plant also has social scientists, this view has actually become a "taboo." 10 years ago, "The Secret Life of Plants," a masterpiece of this new century to promote the social point of view of plant popular. But then about a louis vuitton shoes "talking tree" research has not been "copied" the idea of the plant community are becoming overshadowed. Although seen louis vuitton bags as a silly idea, but the exchanges between the study of plants has also been increased. Most start around the plants to self-defense, such as the release of toxins or related plants to be eaten in the vicinity will focus resources on their immune system. This self-protection is obviously some type of chemical signaling. Further studies showed that plants have self-recognition. Whether they will respond to relatives and then to become a reasonable and fascinating question. Plants will "speak" this view has stimulated people's imagination, gucci uk with the imagination, scientists reveal mystery began to move toward the path. Such research will allow people to plant a new perspective on behavior and evolution. By focusing attention on how to improve agricultural productivity, recognition of kin can bring fruitful results.荷兰内梅亨 汉斯德科里恩 University plant ecologist, said: "We know that kin recognition and selection of family structure in the animal world, altruism and similar things play nike outlet a very important role. This phenomenon performed in the animal world is very prominent. Once discover that plants also have the ability to identify relatives, we can plant a series of assumptions applied to the study, which was previously no one can imagine. "roots and leaves burberry outlet of plants can release signal on kin recognition Capacity of the landmark paper was born in Dudley in 2007 the laboratory, when she shows in the U.S. plants searocket exposure among strangers root growth will accelerate in the stranger into their brothers and sisters will slow down root growth speed. And animals, they also share food and water. According gucci bags to published in the October number "communication and integration of biology," the research paper described in Vahid Bass biologist at the University of Delaware and 梅雷迪思比德 Lazi Ji, trying to be the South by mustard seedlings (located within the nike lunarglide respective containers in) Arabidopsis roots exposed to secretions in other circumstances this way, the isolation of their relatives identify the channel. Proved signal as found in Dudley, as exists in the root exudates in the end because of the growth mode from relatives or unrelated plant genetic change. Curiously, the Dudley recent plants used in the study were dressed and were not exposed to the secretions of each environment, suggesting that they, like the leaves and roots also release chemical signals. University of California at Davis conducted a study of his findings provide support. nike shox Campus biologist Richard Carl classes in the June issue of "Ecology Letters" published research papers, said that when nike running shoes exposed to the plant associated with the destruction of this environment, the Artemisia species will strengthen burberry bags their immune system . Figuratively speaking, they seem to hear the warnings of their loved ones. Away from their parents grow best close to these signals in order to truly understand how the release of and response system, which brings benefits, scientists still need more research. Corrinne said the family does not necessarily mean recognition kin selection, plants may be to communicate, but in real life may not give them too much benefit. Rockefeller Dudley student Amanda is studying whether trees are concerned about their own offspring. According to her prediction, from the parent tree may grow best closer. Dudley and graduate student Ji Lemo ("American Journal of Botany," paper co-author) will be focused its attention on the phenomenon of kin selection in invasive plants. He said: "We are now tested the hypothesis that there is family around the case, invasive plants would be more beneficial to him, allowing them to become a new habitat where the more powerful invaders." For crops, Dudley suggested the analysis of kin recognition research to determine the type of layout of relatives and strangers whether it can increase production. Corrinne is currently studying multi-species mixing. He hoped that the use of plant pests to prevent communication between the innate immune system engineering transformation. Carl classes, said: "Before this, we may think that only human beings or animals, especially nike 6.0 vertebrates would do such a thing. In fact, the plant also has the capacity and complexity than we had expected."
