Calcium and the generation of plant form.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 30 Oct 1995

Knight M R, Knight H, Watkins N J

Abstract excerpt

The involvement of mechanical signals (tension and compression) in the determination of the form of living organisms has been speculated upon for many years. These mechanical signals (both environmental and those generated within the plant itself) have significant effects on plant development and thus morphology. Plants respond to externally applied mechanical signals (touch and wind) by an immediate elevation of...
