Behavioral changes, in turn, are the basis of approaches to addressing the thematic field of memory and intelligence. It is a work filled with intriguing aspects of plant behavior, such as the sensory mechanisms of plants' perception of sound, touch, smells, temperature, O2, O3, CO2, atmospheric pressure, NaCl, nutrients, electric and magnetic fields, water and relative humidity. In addition to those inanimate elements, the book also discusses the mechanisms of plant-plant, plant-microorganism and plant-animal perception, recognition and communication. [center]
