Can Plants Move Like Animals? A Three-Dimensional Stereovision Analysis of Movement in Plants

In this article we adapt a methodology customarily used to investigate movement in animals to study the movement of plants. The targeted movement is circumnutation, a helical organ movement widespread among plants. It is variable due to a different magnitude of the trajectory (amplitude) exhibited b...
