plant biology, thigmotropism is a directional growth movement which occurs as a mechanosensory response to a touch stimulus. Thigmotropism is typically...

Thigmotropism is directional movement that occurs in plants responding to physical touch. Climbing plants, such as tomatoes, exhibit thigmotropism, allowing...

tendril shoot will coil around the object; this is a reaction called thigmotropism.  This tendril can control the amount of tension and squeeze the object...

soybean crops in the Mississippi Delta. It is an example for thigmotropism. Usually thigmotropism occurs when plants grow around a surface, such as a wall...

plants, as almost all plant species show circumnutation behaviors. Thigmotropism is the basis of the input signal in the tendril coiling mechanism. For...

gravity (gravitropism), water, (hydrotropism), and physical contact (thigmotropism). Plant growth and development are mediated by specific plant hormones...

germ tube may locate a stoma by a touch responsive process known as thigmotropism. This involves orienting to ridges created by epidermal cells on the...

long tentacles, which frequently grow fast enough in response to prey (thigmotropism) to aid the trapping process. The tentacles of D. burmanii can bend...

itself in mucilage. Some species can bend their leaf edges slightly by thigmotropism, bringing additional glands into contact with the trapped insect. The...
