46 7. So there is some water outside of the pipe. To play the message, press two. Along with a home-inspection duo, a science writer, and some enterprising scientists at Princeton University, wedig into the work of evolutionaryecologist Monica Gagliano, who turns ourbrain-centered worldview on its head through a series of clever experiments that show plants doing things we never would've imagined. What a fungus does is it -- it hunts, it mines, it fishes, and it strangles. They look just like mining tunnels. Big thanks to Aatish Bhatia, to Sharon De La Cruz and to Peter Landgren at Princeton University's Council on Science and Technology. Wait a second. We dropped. And so I was really excited. The plants have to keep pulling their leaves up and they just get tired. I don't think Monica knows the answer to that, but she does believe that, you know, that we humans We are a little obsessed with the brain. SUZANNE SIMARD: Where we've all been, you know, doing our daily business. Support Radiolab today at Radiolab.org/donate. JENNIFER FRAZER: Yeah. It's time -- time for us to go and lie down on the soft forest floor. I think there is something like a nervous system in the forest, because it's the same sort of large network of nodes sending signals to one another. So there's these little insects that lives in the soil, these just adorable little creatures called springtails. So you can -- you can see this is like a game of telephone. So after much trial and error with click and hums and buzzes She found that the one stimulus that would be perfect was A little fan. ALVIN UBELL: Testing one, two. So you think that that this -- you think this is a hubris corrector? ROBERT: He's got lots of questions about her research methods, but really his major complaint is -- is her language. Pics! She's done three experiments, and I think if I tell you about what she has done, you -- even you -- will be provoked into thinking that plants can do stuff you didn't imagine, dream they could do. On one side, instead of the pipe with water, she attaches an MP3 player with a little speaker playing a recording of And then on the other side, Monica has another MP3 player with a speaker. So we're really -- like this is -- we're really at the very beginning of this. ROBERT: Isn't that what you do? LARRY UBELL: Yes, we are related. JENNIFER FRAZER: The fungi needs sugar to build their bodies, the same way that we use our food to build our bodies. Wait a second. ANNIE: But I wonder if her using these metaphors ANNIE: is perhaps a very creative way of looking at -- looking at a plant, and therefore leads her to make -- make up these experiments that those who wouldn't think the way she would would ever make up. Does it threaten my sense of myself or my place as a human that a plant can do this? Would just suck up through photosynthesis. And the pea plant leans toward them. I don't think Monica knows the answer to that, but she does believe that, you know, that we humans We are a little obsessed with the brain. And the fungus actually builds a tunnel inside the rock. Could a plant learn to associate something totally random like a bell with something it wanted, like food? She determined that you can pick a little computer fan and blow it on a pea plant for pretty much ever and the pea plant would be utterly indifferent to the whole thing. And if you don't have one, by default you can't do much in general. I'm a professor emeritus of plant biology at UC Santa Cruz. Or maybe it's the fungus under the ground is kind of like a broker and decides who gets what. -- they spring way up high in the air. JENNIFER FRAZER: Plants are really underrated. And for the meat substitute, she gave each plant little bit of food. SUZANNE SIMARD: There's an enemy in the midst. On the fifth day, they take a look and discover most of the roots, a majority of the roots were heading toward the sound of water. ROBERT: And some of them, this is Lincoln Taiz LINCOLN TAIZ: I'm a professor emeritus of plant biology at UC Santa Cruz. And it's that little, little bit of moisture that the plant will somehow sense. Along with a home-inspection duo, a science writer, and some enterprising scientists at Princeton University, we turn our brain-centered worldview on its head through a series of clever experiments that show plants doing things we never would've imagined. Wait a second. And so the whole family and uncles and aunts and cousins, we all rush up there. It should have some. ROBERT: And right in the middle of the yard is a tree. If there was only the fan, would the plant After three days of this training regime, it is now time to test the plants with just the fan, no light. And if you don't have one, by default you can't do much in general. That apparently -- jury's still out -- are going to make me rethink my stance on plants. They don't do well in warm temperatures and their needles turn all sickly yellow. But now we know, after having looked at their DNA, that fungi are actually very closely related to animals. The problem is is with plants. I don't know. That is actually a clue in what turns out to be a deep, deep mystery. So we went back to Monica. But when we look at the below ground structure, it looks so much like a brain physically, and now that we're starting to understand how it works, we're going, wow, there's so many parallels. And to Annie McEwen and Brenna Farrow who both produced this piece. And I need a bird, a lot of birds, actually. Birds, please. LARRY UBELL: That -- that's -- that's interesting. ROBERT: And we dropped it once and twice. There are multiple ways of doing one thing, right? So we're really -- like this is -- we're really at the very beginning of this. Radiolab - Smarty Plants . They're switched on. MONICA GAGLIANO: Picasso! Well of course, there could be a whole -- any number of reasons why, you know, one tree's affected by another. Except in this case instead of a chair, they've got a little plant-sized box. Or even learn? Start of message. If a nosy deer happens to bump into it, the mimosa plant Curls all its leaves up against its stem. Or even learn? And so we're up there in this -- in this old forest with this guy. It's like a savings account? Why waste hot water? That's the place where I can remember things. Hobbled, really. ROBERT: There's -- they have found salmon in tree rings. You do. Monica's work has actually gotten quite a bit of attention from other plant biologists. We are the principals of Accurate Building Inspectors of Brooklyn, New York. Because after dropping them 60 times, she then shook them left to right and they instantly folded up again. Wait a second. This peculiar plant has a -- has a surprising little skill. If there was only the fan, would the plant After three days of this training regime, it is now time to test the plants with just the fan, no light. Ring, meat, eat. But they do have root hairs. ROBERT: Inspector Tail is his name. The part where the water pipe was, the pipe was on the outside of the pot? She's working in the timber industry at the time. Begins with a woman. But the Ubells have noticed that even if a tree is 10 or 20, 30 yards away from the water pipe, for some reason the tree roots creep with uncanny regularity straight toward the water pipe. Along with a home-inspection duo, a science writer, and some enterprising scientists at Princeton University, we turn our brain-centered worldview on its head through a series of clever experiments that show plants doing things we never would've imagined. SUZANNE SIMARD: Well, when I was a kid, my family spent every summer in the forest. So this is our plant dropper. I know. But over the next two decades, we did experiment after experiment after experiment that verified that story. Or it's just the vibration of the pipe that's making it go toward it. So Monica moves the fans to a new place one more time. There's this whole other world right beneath my feet. JAD: No, it's because it's like every time I close my eyes, you're coming at it from a different direction. let's do it! LARRY UBELL: I'm not giving my age. Okay? LATIF: Yeah. Of Accurate Building Inspectors. Fan first, light after. ROBERT: They would salivate and then eat the meat. Except in this case instead of a chair, they've got a little plant-sized box. ALVIN UBELL: And the tree happens to be a weeping willow. JENNIFER FRAZER: One of the things they eat is fungus. You know, one of those little jeweler's glasses? The water is still in there. I don't know if that was the case for your plants. And after not a whole lot of drops the plant, she noticed, stopped closing its leaves. I know, I know. ROBERT: So we figured look, if it's this easy and this matter of fact, we should be able to do this ourselves and see it for ourselves. Sugar. ROBERT: And when you look at the map, what you see are circles sprouting lines and then connecting to other circles also sprouting lines. Thanks to Jennifer Frazer who helped us make sense of all this. Yeah, mimosa has been one of the pet plants, I guess, for many scientists for, like, centuries. ROY HALLING: So there's an oak tree right there. No, Summer is a real person and her last name happens to be spelled R-A-Y-N-E. But what -- how would a plant hear something? Yes, because she knew that scientists had proposed years before, that maybe there's an underground economy that exists among trees that we can't see. JENNIFER FRAZER: And he would repeat this. ROBERT: So you can -- you can see this is like a game of telephone. JAD: Couldn't it just be an entirely different interpretation here? I thought -- I thought tree roots just sort of did -- like, I thought -- I always imagined tree roots were kind of like straws. MONICA GAGLIANO: Light is obviously representing dinner. ROBERT: Give it to the new -- well, that's what she saying. I've always loved Radiolab. We dropped. ROBERT: And the idea was, she wanted to know like, once the radioactive particles were in the tree, what happens next? The Ubells see this happening all the time. We were so inconsistent, so clumsy, that the plants were smart to keep playing it safe and closing themselves up. And we dropped it once and twice. Pics! ROBERT: Truth is, I think on this point she's got a -- she's right. An expert. In this case, a little blue LED light. Just a boring set of twigs. Because if I let you go it's gonna be another 20 minutes until I get to talk. Peering down at the plants under the red glow of her headlamp. JENNIFER FRAZER: They had learned to associate the sound of the bell ROBERT: Which has, you know, for dogs has nothing to do with meat. But maybe it makes her sort of more open-minded than -- than someone who's just looking at a notebook. On the fifth day, they take a look and discover most of the roots, a majority of the roots were heading toward the sound of water. And the pea plants are left alone to sit in this quiet, dark room feeling the breeze. Fan, light, lean. Radiolab is supported in part by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, enhancing public understanding of science and technology in the modern world. ROBERT: Like, would they figure it out faster this time? So the -- this branching pot thing. ROBERT: He's got lots of questions about her research methods, but really his major complaint is -- is her language. [laughs]. Oh! Never mind.". Nothing delicious at all.". Picasso! I don't know where you were that day. Like, how can a plant -- how does a plant do that? The water is still in there. But she had a kind of, maybe call it a Jigs-ian recollection. For this part of our broadcast, I'd like to begin by imagining a tall, dark, dense, green forest. And so of course, that was only the beginning. In my brain. My name is Monica Gagliano. ROBERT: Let us say you have a yard in front of your house. ], Maria Matasar-Padilla is our Managing Director. I'll put it down in my fungi. ROY HALLING: Like, I say, it's early in the season. Coming up on the Plant Parade, we get to the heart -- or better yet, the root -- of a very specific type of plant. Visit your local Culver City PetSmart store for essential pet supplies like food, treats and more from top brands. We ask deep questions and use investigative journalism to get the answers. Plants are amazing, and this world is amazing and that living creatures have this ability for reasons we don't understand, can't comprehend yet." And it begins to look a lot like an airline flight map, but even more dense. I don't know. And does it change my place in the world? Today, Robert drags Jad along on a parade for the surprising feats of brainless plants. SUZANNE SIMARD: It's just this incredible communications network that, you know, people had no idea about in the past, because we couldn't -- didn't know how to look. That's the place where I remember things. And she says this time they relaxed almost immediately. If you get too wrapped up in your poetic metaphor, you're very likely to be misled and to over-interpret the data. LARRY UBELL: I'm not giving my age. I mean, can you remember what you were doing a month ago? And they still remembered. It's almost as if these plants -- it's almost as if they know where our pipes are. MONICA GAGLIANO: The idea was to drop them again just to see, like, the difference between the first time you learn something and the next time. They learned something. ROBERT: And she goes on to argue that had we been a little bit more steady and a little bit more consistent, the plants would have learned and would have remembered the lesson. Give it to the new -- well, that's what she saying. ], [JENNIFER FRAZER: Soren Wheeler is Senior Editor. There was a healthier community when they were mixed and I wanted to figure out why. So you can get -- anybody can get one of these plants, and we did. She took some plants, put them in a pot that restricted the roots so they could only go in one of just two directions, toward the water pipe or away from the water pipe. . Radiolab Smarty Plants. Today, Robert drags Jad along on a parade for the surprising feats of brainless plants. So ROBERT: He says something about that's the wrong season. And might as well start the story back when she was a little girl. Did Jigs emerge? JENNIFER FRAZER: So Pavlov started by getting some dogs and some meat and a bell. ROBERT: Now, you might think that the plant sends out roots in every direction. It's about how plants learn, or adapt, or even listen, the way humans do (though scientists really don't seem to know how). So she decided to conduct her experiment. Exactly. And we were able to map the network. Kind of even like, could there be a brain, or could there be ears or, you know, just sort of like going off the deep end there. Yeah. And remember, if you're a springtail, don't talk to strange mushrooms. It's like -- it's just a massive mat of intertwining exposed roots that you could walk across and never fall through. They remembered what had happened three days before, that dropping didn't hurt, that they didn't have to fold up. We were so inconsistent, so clumsy, that the plants were smart to keep playing it safe and closing themselves up. I was like, "Oh, my God! Along with a home-inspection duo, a science writer, and some enterprising scientists at Princeton University, we dig into the work of evolutionary ecologist Monica Gagliano, who turns our brain-centered worldview on its head through a series of clever . ROBERT: But what -- how would a plant hear something? That was my reaction. And it's more expensive. It's a -- it's a three-pronged answer. SUZANNE SIMARD: Not a basset hound, but he was a beagle. Wait a second. JAD: So we're up to experiment two now, are we not? So it wasn't touching the dirt at all. And right in the middle of the yard is a tree. No, it's because it's like every time I close my eyes, you're coming at it from a different direction. But I wonder if her using these metaphors is perhaps a very creative way of looking at -- looking at a plant, and therefore leads her to make -- make up these experiments that those who wouldn't think the way she would would ever make up. JAD: What exchange would that be, Robert? So today we have a triptych of experiments about plants. ROBERT: So she takes the plants, she puts them into the parachute drop, she drops them. So there is some water outside of the pipe. ROBERT: Huh. They have to -- have to edit in this together. Pretty much like the concept of Pavlov with his dog applied. They remembered what had happened three days before, that dropping didn't hurt, that they didn't have to fold up. It was like -- it was like a huge network. You know, they talk about how honeybee colonies are sort of superorganisms, because each individual bee is sort of acting like it's a cell in a larger body. And all of a sudden, one of them says, "Oh, oh, oh, oh! JENNIFER FRAZER: They had learned to associate the sound of the bell ROBERT: Which has, you know, for dogs has nothing to do with meat. So no plants were actually hurt in this experiment. She actually trained this story in a rather elaborate experimental setup to move away from the light and toward a light breeze against all of its instincts. So you are related and you're both in the plumbing business? Listen to Radiolab: Smarty Plants, an episode of Wilderness Radio, easily on Podbay - the best podcast player on the web. Handheld? ALVIN UBELL: In a tangling of spaghetti-like, almost a -- and each one of those lines of spaghetti is squeezing a little bit. Also thanks to Christy Melville and to Emerald O'Brien and to Andres O'Hara and to Summer Rayne. Actually, Monica's dog leads perfectly into her third experiment, which again will be with a plant. And remember, if you're a springtail, don't talk to strange mushrooms. They still did not close when she dropped them. So he brought them some meat. So they can't move. Earn PetSmart Treats loyalty points with every purchase and get members-only discounts. Fan, light, lean. They somehow have a dye, and don't ask me how they know this or how they figured it out, but they have a little stain that they can put on the springtails to tell if they're alive or dead. It's soaks in sunshine, and it takes CO2, carbon dioxide, and it's splits it in half. Okay? I'll put it down in my fungi. Same as the Pavlov. JAD: The thing I don't get is in animals, the hairs in our ear are sending the signals to a brain and that is what chooses what to do. Which by the way, is definitely not a plant. She went into the forest, got some trees. ROBERT: Truth is, I think on this point she's got a -- she's right. To remember? When we last left off, I'm just saying you just said intelligence. No matter how amazing I think that the results are, for some reason people just don't think plants are interesting. JENNIFER FRAZER: Right? SUZANNE SIMARD: And so I designed this experiment to figure that out. In this story, a dog introduces us to a strange creature that burrows . I'm a research associate professor at the University of Sydney. [ENRIQUE: This is Enrique Romero from the bordertown of Laredo, Texas. ROBERT: [laughs] You mean, like the World Wide Web? Different kind of signal traveling through the soil? It's doing like a triple double axel backflip or something into the sky. This is the headphones? Favorite 46 Add to Repost 7. Right? ROBERT: And she was willing to entertain the possibility that plants can do something like hear. ROBERT: Well, let us say you have a yard in front of your house. Okay. ROBERT: But instead of dogs, she had pea plants in a dark room. But instead of dogs, she had pea plants in a dark room. ROBERT: He gives us a magnifying glass. Because if I let you go it's gonna be another 20 minutes until I get to talk. So the roots can go either left or to the right. That was my reaction. And the tubes branch and sometimes they reconnect. ROBERT: So the plants are now, you know, buckled in, minding their own business. ANNIE MCEWEN: What was your reaction when you saw this happen? ROBERT: And her family included a dog named Jigs. ], [ALVIN UBELL: Our fact-checker is Michelle Harris. JAD: What -- I forgot to ask you something important. ROBERT: But the drop was just shocking and sudden enough for the little plant to ROBERT: Do its reflex defense thing. Ring, meat, eat. Isn't -- doesn't -- don't professors begin to start falling out of chairs when that word gets used regarding plants? That's a parade I'll show up for. I was like, "Oh, my God! It spits out the O2. Ring, meat, eat. Smarty Plants. Actually that's good advice for anyone. So we've done experiments, and other people in different labs around the world, they've been able to figure out that if a tree's injured ROBERT: It'll cry out in a kind of chemical way. ], [LARRY UBELL: Radiolab was created by Jad Abumrad and is produced by Soren Wheeler. MONICA GAGLIANO: My reaction was, "Oh ****!" Exactly. LARRY UBELL: Or it's just the vibration of the pipe that's making it go toward it. Maybe each root is -- is like a little ear for the plant. Because what she does next is three days later, she takes these plants back into the lab. MONICA GAGLIANO: Yeah, I know. Me first. They would salivate and then eat the meat. SUZANNE SIMARD: They start producing chemicals that taste really bad. Actually that's good advice for anyone. Like a human would. It's like every time I close my eyes, you're coming at it from a different direction. They all went closed. So the question is MONICA GAGLIANO: A plant that is quite far away from the actual pipe, how does it know which way to turn and grow its roots so that it can find the water? But what I do know is that the fact that the plant doesn't have a brain doesn't -- doesn't a priori say that the plants can't do something. SUZANNE SIMARD: Yeah, he was a curious dog. What the team found is the food ends up very often with trees that are new in the forest and better at surviving global warming. So we went back to Monica. He uses it to train his border www.npr.org Before you begin to think that this is weird science, stop. ROBERT: Begins with a woman. I am the blogger of The Artful Amoeba at Scientific American. And Jigs at some point just runs off into the woods, just maybe to chase a rabbit. That's a -- learning is something I didn't think plants could do. Radiolab will continue in a moment. Annie McWen or McEwen ], [JENNIFER FRAZER: Latif Nasser, Malissa O'Donnell, Arianne Wack ], [ALVIN UBELL: Pat Walter and Molly Webber. They can't photosynthesize. That would be sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals-sugar-minerals. JENNIFER FRAZER: Yeah. Testing one, two. But let me just -- let me give it a try. There's -- they have found salmon in tree rings. And when they go in SUZANNE SIMARD: There is Jigs at the bottom of the outhouse, probably six feet down at the bottom of the outhouse pit. Let us say you have a yard in front of your house. The same one that are used in computers like, you know, really tiny. Start of message. ROBERT: For this part of our broadcast, I'd like to begin by imagining a tall, dark, dense, green forest. You found exactly what the plants would do under your circumstances which were, I don't know, let's say a bit more tumultuous than mine. You give me -- like, I want wind, birds, chipmunks JAD: Like, I'm not, like, your sound puppet here. ROBERT: And for the meat substitute, she gave each plant little bit of food. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of someone halfway across the world. LARRY UBELL: We are the principals of Accurate Building Inspectors of Brooklyn, New York. And it can reach these little packets of minerals and mine them. And moved around, but always matched in the same way together. And when I came on the scene in 19 -- the 1980s as a forester, we were into industrial, large-scale clear-cutting in western Canada. Eventually over a period of time, it'll crack the pipe like a nutcracker. I'm 84. I don't know. They start producing chemicals that taste really bad. ROBERT: All right, never mind. And it's good it was Sunday. No. Let him talk. And it's more expensive. So they figured out who paid for the murder. Because the only reason why the experiment turned out to be 28 days is because I ran out of time. More information about Sloan at www.sloan.org]. Or maybe it's the fungus under the ground is kind of like a broker and decides who gets what. Just a boring set of twigs. That's okay. Me first. SUZANNE SIMARD: I know. JAD: The part where the water pipe was, the pipe was on the outside of the pot? We dropped. So you can get -- anybody can get one of these plants, and we did. Is that what -- is that what this? This way there is often more questions than answers, but that's part of the fun as well. Remember that the roots of these plants can either go one direction towards the sound of water in a pipe, or the other direction to the sound of silence. ROBERT: Like, would they figure it out faster this time? JENNIFER FRAZER: Finally, one time he did not bring the meat, but he rang the bell. Now, you might think that the plant sends out roots in every direction. We're just learning about them now, and they're so interesting. And she says she began to notice things that, you know, one wouldn't really expect. I mean, you're out there in the forest and you see all these trees, and you think they're individuals just like animals, right? No, it's far more exciting than that. ROBERT: She thinks that they somehow remembered all those drops and it never hurt, so they didn't fold up any more. Exactly. Where would the -- a little plant even store a memory? But they do have root hairs. Wilderness Radio. No question there. ROBERT: After three days of this training regime, it is now time to test the plants with just the fan, no light. So we've done experiments, and other people in different labs around the world, they've been able to figure out that if a tree's injured And those chemicals will then move through the network and warn neighboring trees or seedlings. It's a very interesting experiment, and I really want to see whether it's correct or not. View SmartyPlantsRadioLab Transcript (2).docx from CHEM 001A at Pasadena City College. In a tangling of spaghetti-like, almost a -- and each one of those lines of spaghetti is squeezing a little bit.
