???? Tuesdays at the Espace des sciences ???? https://www.espace-sciences.org/renne... Imagine yourself in the skin of a tree, completely naked in all weathers, your feet fixed in the ground, confined and deprived of walking, unable to run after your food or drink from the tap, unable to hug your sexual partner or flee from danger. Imagine having to fight with your neighbors in the high forest for the slightest drop of water or the smallest ray of sunshine. The desire to cooperate with them might well come to you, together we are stronger! But how can you communicate when you are a tree devoid of speech? Since Antiquity and until very recently, the notions of sensitivity and communication have been reserved for the animal world, in particular for humans, plants being considered devoid of any life of relationship, vegetative in a way... And yet, could it be that the trees of the forests whisper secret messages to each other? With Catherine Lenne, teacher-researcher in Botany at the University of Clermont Auvergne and doctor in plant physiology at the PIAF laboratory (Integrative Physics and Physiology of the Tree in a Fluctuating Environment). ????
