This research investigates how plants process sensory information and coordinate growth through stochastic transport of hormones, a phenomenon termed morphological computation. By studying tropisms, the project aims to uncover the physical principles behind plant movement and memory, offering insights into distributed…
Plants are multicellular organisms with no brain, yet they respond to external stimuli by coordinating their cells into strategic growth-driven movement, termed tropisms.
Specifically, local sensory information is encoded, processed and propagated across the tissue via stochastic transport of growth hormones, and the plant responds by growing.
Notably, information-processing and growth (actuation) are merged; thus plants are a unique case of morphological computation.
However, they have yet to b…
