Plants Emit Sounds Detectable by Moths, new Study Reveals
Researchers have discovered that plants, when under stress, emit ultrasonic sounds that can be detected by moths.This groundbreaking finding suggests a previously unknown form of communication between plants and insects, potentially influencing insect behavior and plant reproduction.
The researchers emphasize that plants are not sentient beings. The sounds originate from physical processes triggered by changes in their local environmental conditions. this discovery highlights that these sounds can serve as valuable information for other organisms,including animals and potentially other plants,that possess the ability to perceive them.
Professor Hadany suggests that this interaction could represent a co-evolutionary process, where plants and animals have developed the capacity to produce and detect these sounds for their mutual benefit.
“Plants could evolve to make more sounds or louder ones if they were of benefit to it and the hearing of animals may evolve accordingly so they can take in this huge amount of information.
“This is a vast
