Adaptive Anatomical Structure for Nastic Movement in Mimosa Pudica L

In order to study the adaptive anatomical structures during nastic movement of Mimosa pudica L., anatomical structures of main pulvinus, common petioles, rachis and leaflets were compared with Albizia julibrissin Durazz. (taken as control). The anatomical structures of main pulvinus and common petiole of M. pudica were different from that of A. julibrissin. Upon stimuliti, the protoplast volume...

Image Processing of Leaf Movements in Mimosa pudica

In this paper the plant Mimosa pudica’s response to changed illumination conditions is being examined. An image processing routine, using the HSV color model and triangle intensity threshold segmentation, is developed to segment time-lapse image series of Mimosa pudica, quantifying the plant’s image pixel count as a measure of movement. Furthermore, the method of Farnebäck is used to estimate d...

Learning in Plants: Lessons from Mimosa pudica

This article provides an overview of the early Mimosa pudica literature; much of which is in journals not easily accessible to the reader. In contrast to the contemporary plant learning literature which is conducted primarily by plant biologists, this early literature was conducted by comparative psychologists whose goal was to search for the generality of learning phenomena such as habituation...
