"We are convinced, however, that this is just the beginning. Acoustic interaction between plants and animals doubtlessly has ...

When a plant is stressed, it doesn’t keep quiet about it. You won’t hear the plant’s cry because it’s in the ultrasonic range — too high-pitched for human ears — but, for decades, scientists have been ...

Female moths avoid laying eggs on stressed plants that emit ultrasonic sounds. Instead, they choose silent, healthy plants.

Research aimed at developing ultrasonic microphones with insect-like sensitivity is to continue in the rainforests of Colombia and Ecuador. Research aimed at developing ultrasonic microphones with ...

Researchers at Tel Aviv University discovered for the first time that animals respond to sounds made by plants. The study, published in the journal eLife, found that female moths avoid laying eggs on ...

Plants and insects may communicate through sound, say Tel Aviv researchers, marking a breakthrough in understanding nature’s acoustic signals. The study, published in the journal eLife, suggests that ...

What do bats, dolphins, shrews, and whales have in common? Echolocation! Echolocation is the ability to use sound to navigate. Many animals, and even some humans, are able to use sounds in order to ...

Ultrasonic bushcrickets could be using a similar method to communicate as that used by whales, according to newly published research. Katydid species that have extreme ultrasonic frequencies face a ...
