Detalle de: Good Vibes: how do plants recognise and respond to pollinator vibroacoustic signals?

Title Good Vibes: how do plants recognise and respond to pollinator vibroacoustic signals?
Description

‘Good Vibes’ aims at dissecting the molecular and physiological mechanisms of plant responses to distinct vibroacoustic signals (VAs) emitted by approaching insects, using Antirrhinum (snapdragon) as a model. Since Antirrhinum flower visitors have unequal efficiency as pollinators and emit characteristic VAs, it is supposed that plants are able to recognise effective pollinators by sensing their specific VA signatures.
