Paragraph 2
The research was conducted in an
chamber in an adapted greenhouse at Israel's Tel Aviv University. Scientists discovered that
from stressed tobacco and tomato plants turned into sound
. Lead researcher Professor Lilach Hadany said: "Plants usually emit
when they are under stress. Each plant and each type of stress is associated with a
identifiable sound." She suggested that
of crops could be quite noisy, saying: "While imperceptible to the human
, the sounds emitted by plants can be heard by…
, mice, and insects." Interpreting these sounds could help us understand when crops are dehydrated. Farmers could irrigate their
more efficiently, and
conserve water.
