This created an electric field around the plant in the same way as the fertilizer. He observed that while the bees approached the electrically manipulated flowers, they did not land on them.

This phenomenon, increasingly well understood in medicine for wound healing, has now become a hot topic in plant research as well: an electric field has veto power over roots' response to the ...

“Pollinators, such as insects and hummingbirds, are known to be electrically charged, and it is believed that pollen is attracted by the electric field formed by the pollinator and the plant ...

And these electric fields of flowers can change when it has ... ranging from microbes in the soil and plant-pollinator interactions to insect swarms and the global electric circuit,” says ...

Yet little is known of the physiological influence on plant growth of the electric field environment which prevails at all times everywhere. This communication shows that sufficiently high ...
