ALL Plants Have Color Vision?!

Sobre este vídeo

Thanks to the ASCEND project for partnering with us on this video! Plants can tell when competitors are nearby because they can *see* them. LEARN MORE ************** To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords: - Shade avoidance: changes in plant body form and function that occur in response to the light signals provided by neighboring vegetation - Photoreceptors: light-sensitive proteins involved in the sensing and response to light in a variety of organisms - Far-red light: light at the extreme red end of the visible spectrum, just before infrared light (wavelength of ~700 to 750 nm) SUPPORT MINUTEEARTH ************************** If you like what we do, you can help us!: - Become our patron: https://patreon.com/MinuteEarth - Our merch: http://dftba.com/minuteearth - Our book: https://minuteearth.com/books - Share this video with your friends and family - Leave us a comment (we read them!)
