"When analysing the seeds, the scientists came across a surprising discovery: "the seeds of the infested fruits are not always aborted, but rather it depends on how many seeds there are in the berries", explains Dr. Katrin M. Meyer, who analysed the data at the UFZ and currently works at the University of Goettingen"
Lehcen Benikhlef: Streicheln hält die Pflanze fit @bdwreaktion - 0 views

"Meist verursachen mechanische Reize jedoch unsichtbare Veränderungen. Viele Pflanzen reagieren nur auf molekularer und genetischer Ebene. Die Acker-Schmalwand etwa flutet ihre Zellen mit Calcium und schüttet reaktive Sauerstoffverbindungen aus, sobald sie mechanischem Stress ausgesetzt ist. Dabei reicht es, die Blätter vorsichtig zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinger zu reiben, wie Lehcen Benikhlef von der Universität Freiburg in der Schweiz und seine Kollegen nun herausfanden. Wie sie in der Fachzeitschrift „BMC Plant Biology" beschreiben, ändert sich auch die Genexpression in den gestreichelten Blättern. Außerdem wird die äußerste Schicht des Blattes durchlässiger - vermutlich, damit der Cocktail aus Chemikalien besser austreten kann, der Angreifer fernhalten soll. "
Creature with Interlocking Gears on Legs Discovered | LiveScience - 0 views

"Gears are ubiquitous in the man-made world, found in items ranging from wristwatches to car engines, but it seems that nature invented them first. A species of plant-hopping insect, Issus coleoptratus, is the first living creature known to possess functional gears, a new study finds. The two interlocking gears on the insect's hind legs help synchronize the legs when the animal jumps."
Leaves whisper their properties through ultrasound - 0 views

"The water content of leaves, their thickness, their density and other properties can now be determined without even having to touch them. A team of researchers from the CSIC Institute of Acoustics and the Agri-Food Research and Technology Centre (CITA) of Aragón has just presented an innovative technique that enables plant leaves to be studied using ultrasound in a quick, simple and non-invasive fashion."

Research in microbiology is done to determine how these organisms prove beneficial to human health. Microbial genetics also deals with the transfer of the desired gene from any source of the plant. Besides this, microbiological studies are involved with an end to end the study of each and every drug we use today.
