Amazing work on plant #electricalsignaling, #calcium and its association to leaf #senescence after long term herbivory by caterpillars and #aphids from the Farmer lab - a glimpse on the intruiging life of #plants and their defenses against #insects
What contributes to mantain leaf excitability? ACA pumps. In the veins. Our latest work is finally out cell.com/current-biology/ful…
