Dear Plant Physiology & Forest Ecology Friends,
Is this image a good illustration of #phototropism? This is Pinus ponderosa, seen here in a grove of other pines and hemlocks in the #California #SierraMountains. Not sure if there may have been an intervening event causing the lean and subsequent release towards the sky. Thanks in advancefor the #help.

New view on #plant #phototropism: Air channels enhance light #scattering in Arabidopsis hypocotyls, thereby steepening the #light #gradient. This is required for an efficient phototropic response in Arabidopsis and Brassica.

#Plants use air channels to create a directional light signal https://phys.org/news/2023-11-air-channels-phototropism.html
Air channels create a directional light signal to regulate #hypocotyl #phototropism https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adh9384
"light-sensitive #plant #tissue uses the optical properties of the interface between air and water to generate a light gradient that is 'visible' to the plant... The plant can then determine the origin of the light source."

New video by @[email protected] on CIBSS member Andreas Hiltbrunner and his work on #phytochrome and #phototropism. And yes, he does work with #arabidopsis and not with sunflowers, but they're pretty, and it's summer. Pic from the botanical garden next door ☀️ https://www.cibss.uni-freiburg.de/news/hiltbrunnervideo
