Arabidopsis Rapid Movement Response to Electrical Stimulation

Objective: Plants respond to their environment in a multitude of ways. Gradual movements occur in response to light (phototropism), and more rapid movements occur in response to touch (thigmatropism). In this report, we describe a rapid movement response that occurs in plants without any physical contact with the seedlings that is based on electric charge.

Methods: Three varieties of seeds were planted in the laboratory under sterile conditions. After 5-10 days the seedlings were tested for their response to electric field stimuli, and video responses were recorded.

Results: Plant seedlings of T... view moreĀ»
