Phytosemiotics (Botany 🌱)

Phytosemiotics is a branch of biosemiotics that studies the sign processing capabilities present in plants. Some functions that plants perform that utilize this simple semiosis includes cellular recognition, plant perception, intercellular communication, and plant signal transduction. Comparative to the sign processing present in animals and humans, phytosemiotics oc...

#AmReading The Light Eaters by Zoë Schlanger. It's a rhapsody on the sheer brilliance of plant life – on how plants listen and remember, seduce and lie, kill and collaborate. I'm left with a new admiration for their perseverance, their flair for communication, and their genius as chemists.
Plants are why humans are alive. And despite what we do to sabotage them, it may be plants that inherit the earth.

New on the blog: pondering the idea of plant intelligence--and why they're characters in so much of my work.

Hope you keep them watered, darlings. they might get feisty otherwise...

🌿🧠 Are plants intelligent? It's not so simple! 🤔 Cornell researchers explore how goldenrod adapts to neighbors & threats, challenging our definition of intelligence. Plants might be smarter than we think! 🌼🔬 #PlantIntelligence #BotanyResearch #ScienceNews https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2024/06/are-plants-intelligent-it-depends-definition

Researchers have discovered that plants, specifically goldenrods, exhibit remarkable problem-solving skills. These plants can perceive their environment and adapt their responses based on past experiences, challenging the traditional notion that intelligence requires a central nervous system.
