“Apparently, an idyllic field of flowers can be a rather noisy place. It’s just that we can’t hear the sounds,” study coauthor Lilach Hadany quipped.
Researchers say they put the plants in a box in a basement with no background noise, placing ultrasonic microphones about 10 centimeters away from each specimen.“Before placing the plants in the acoustic box we subjected them to various treatments: some plants had not been watered for five days, in some the stem had been cut, and some were untouched,” Hadany said.
“We assume that in nature the sounds emitted by plants are detected by creatures nearby, such as bats, rodents, various insects, and possibly also other plants — that can hear the high frequencies and derive relevant information,” Hadany said.
