Clever plants chat over their own network

kitty submitted, created time 1 year 3 months (www.nwo.nl)

Recent research from Vidi researcher Josef Stuefer at the Radboud University Nijmegen reveals that plants have their own chat systems that they can use to warn each other. Therefore plants are not boring and passive organisms that just stand there waiting to be cut off or eaten up. Many plants form internal communications networks and are able to exchange information efficiently.

Chemical communication?

I wonder, without a nervous system, is it really communication or just reaction?
