Shear-Enhanced Dispersion of a Wound Substance as a Candidate Mechanism for Variation Potential Transmission
A variation potential (VP) is an electrical signal unique to plants that occurs in response to wounding or flaming. The propagation mechanism itself, however, is known not to be electrical. Here we examine the hypothesis that VP transmission occurs via the transport of a chemical agent in the xylem....
