Abstract in brief
Plants, like animals, can learn from their environment, but their ability to memorize and organize responses is less understood.
In Mimosa pudic, a sensitive plant, repeated physical disturbance causes a learning behavior called habituation, where the plant responds less over time, indicating a form of elementary learning.
Habituation in Mimosa is stronger and lasts longer when the plant is in challenging, energy-demanding environments, and this learned behavior can persist even after a month in better conditions, similar to animal memory persistence.]
Another possible example of rudimentary "cognition" in a plant: Touch-me-nots may learn from experience. At first, they react to being dropped; soon, though, they habituate and stop reacting. The learning may last > a month. https://t.co/mCsqMBP3Br

Or that it appears plants have some ability to build memories and forget?
The "touch-me-not" plant normally recoils at physical stimulus. But in a study, researchers were able to train the plant to stop this response after repeated stimuli

A negative regulator of the gene, “imposing an inhibitory epigenetic marking which, in turn, leads to a smaller behavioral response when recurring stimulations of the same kind activate that gene [i.e. memory of inhibitory modifications and recall."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Stress vs habituation. “These are quite different from habituated responses like the one shown by the Mimosa plants in this study, where an input to the gene may produce a behavioral output that operates as a negative regulator of the gene.”
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“These stress-induced changes in plant response resulting from previous experiences involve a priming input that modifies chromatin patterns but does not lead to an immediate phenotypic response [i.e. memory with delayed output."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Epigenetic stressors: “acquired tolerance to drought stress, whereby exposure of young plants to a mild salt treatment primes enhanced drought tolerance in adult plants."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Epigenetic stressors. “Induced plant defences, whereby an anti-herbivore or anti-pathogen response is primed by environmental cues that reliably indicate an increased probability of attacks prior to their occurrence.”
https://t.co/y77lyVkBpY
“Changes in chromatin methylation patterns are strongly produced following environmental stress and retained as a source of ‘stress memory’ [e.g. vernalization, whereby the flowering of plants requires priming by previous exposure to chilling.”
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“In principle, behavioral responses can be modified or refined through the integration of environmental experiences (i.e. learning) via changes in chromatin status [modulated by acetylation and methylation of DNA and histone proteins.“
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Additionally at the molecular level, the role of epigenetic reprogramming has been increasingly identified as a promising candidate mechanism for learning and memory storage in plants and more generally, across all taxa."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“The Ca2+/CaM signalling system controls the expression of genes whether their transcription occurs in the neurons of a big-brained animal or in the root apex cells of a plant." (CaM = Calmodulin).
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Calmodulin (CaM). "What is really interesting about this Ca2+ sensor is that CaM is one of the most conserved Ca2+-binding proteins in eukaryotes [>70 % sequence alignment similarity between animals and plants.”
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“In both animals and plants, fluctuations in [Ca2+]i levels are directly linked to stimulus–response coupling through changes in the concentration of small molecules and proteins, including calmodulin (CaM)."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“In plants, this same [Ca2+]i system is already known to contribute to the formation of stress imprints and may be responsible for the long-term memory we observed in Mimosa."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Interestingly in animals, fluctuations in [Ca2+]i during learning seem to be essential in priming the organism for the formation of long-term memory, without affecting short-term memory.”

“Intracellular Ca ([Ca2+]i) signals are known to regulate a large variety of functions in all biological organisms, including memory processing and formation of memory imprints of past events ranging from minutes to generations through gene expression."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Plants may lack brains and neural tissues but they do possess a sophisticated Ca-signalling network in their cells similar to those underlying memory processes in animals."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Mimosa “revealing that these plants employ sensory and motor pathways with the direct involvement of voltage-gated ion channels, neurotransmitters and changes in protein synthesis, all of which may also be utilized during the learning process."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Interestingly, the physiological and cellular mechanisms of leaf movements associated with fast responses to environmental stimuli in plants like Mimosa have been known for some time.”
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“But we have left unanswered the fundamental question of the mechanisms underlying this deceptively simple form of learning, the biological basis of which we still do not fully understand in any organism."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Mimosa’s proficiency in responding appropriately to a known stimulus within a new context does not require brand-new learning but the capacity to ‘remember’ (i.e. recognize that a present cue has been previously encountered) and adjust slightly."

“Mimosa can acquire an enduring memory of a past event, whereby the plant recognizes and generalizes the learned stimulus even when the context in which the memory was generated has changed.“
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Mimosa. “Disturbance causes the subleaflets to rapidly fold up along the stem of each leaflet, and even the leaflet and leaf stem to droop downwards in a matter of seconds.“
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Controlled drop system for habituation training of Mimosa plants. The sensitive plant Mimosa pudica was chosen as the ideal model for this study, because of its capacity to rapidly fold its leaves in response to physical disturbance."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Hence to meet these criteria, a plant must be able to select relevant things to memorize and actively access those memories to modify the timing, quality or quantity of its behavioral response when exposed to external stimuli."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Habituation is an adaptive process that enables an organism to focus on the important information in its environment, while filtering out stimuli or events that, over time, have repeatedly proven to be irrelevant and innocuous."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Mimosa. “This not only excludes the possibility that this is simply rapid re-habituation, it demonstrates an increase in the tendency of individuals to take a specific action in response to a known stimulus based on prior learning."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Mimosa’s learned response. “This relatively long-lasting learned behavioural change as a result of previous experience matches the persistence of habituation effects observed in many animals."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Astonishingly, Mimosa can display the learned response even when left undisturbed in a more favourable environment for a month.“
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“In Mimosa pudica—the sensitive plant—the defensive leaf-folding behaviour in response to repeated physical disturbance exhibits clear habituation, suggesting some elementary form of learning.“
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“This leaves open the question of whether plants, like animals, can show learned behavioral responses (i.e. a behaviour that an individual develops by being taught)."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“In all cases, the behaviour of the different plants included an ability to store and recall biological information in order to produce a specific (and somewhat predictable) developmental, physiological, morphological or epigenetic response."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
Mimosa. “This relatively long-lasting learned behavioural change as a result of previous experience matches the persistence of habituation effects observed in many animals."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Like animals, plants also acquire a huge amount of information from their environment, yet their capacity to memorize and organize learned behavioral responses has not been demonstrated." (Mancuso)
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Recognizing and quantifying such behavioral changes has proven to be no easy task in human and animal subjects, let alone in plants whose ability to behave is still an underappreciated phenomenon."
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“By definition, learning is a process for acquiring memories by which adaptive changes in an organism’s behaviour arise as a result of experience.”
https://t.co/y77lyVCcOy
“Once the domain of psychologists, research on learning and memory has extended its reach beyond the study of human behaviour to include several animal species and more recently, even machines."
