“Science et Vie” French File. They think! Revelations about plant intelligence. décember 2017 by Jean-Baptiste Verieyras, 15 pages.

Very rich and clear file making a report of all the latest international discoveries on plant intelligence. The file highlights the researches of the Italian scientist Stefano Mancuso and his partners in universities around the world.

Plants are endowed with memory, able to make decisions and even to learn. The file tells us about cell swarms. If they do not have a central brain, plants have a network of cells interconnected by three major communication channels, from roots to leaves, leaves to roots and cells to each other. Communication is also between individuals of the same essence and between different species.

A conceptual revolution? A different perception of the place of the human?
