Gunathilake, and Denneal Jamison-McClung -- Host location and selection by holoparasitic plants / Mark C. Mescher, Jordan Smith, and Consuelo M. DeMoraes -- Plant innate Immunity / Jacqueline Monaghan, Tabea Weihmann, and Xin Li -- Airborne induction and priming of defenses / Martin Heil -- Chemical signaling during induced leaf movements / Minoru Ueda and Yoko Nakamura -- Aposematic (warning) coloration in plants / Simcha Lev-Yadun -- Deceptive behavior in plants. I. Pollination by sexual deception in Orchids: a host-parasite perspective / Nicolas J. Vereecken -- Deceptive behavior in plants. II. Food deception by plants: from generalized systems to specialized floral mimicry / Jana Jersáková, Steven D. Johnson, and Andreas Jürgens -- Cognition in plants / Paco Calvo and Fred Keijzer -- Memorization of abiotic stimuli in plants: a complex role for calcium / Camile Ripol [and others] -- Plants and animals: convergent evolution in action? / František Baluška and Stefano Mancuso.
Summary: Our image of plants is changing dramatically away from passive entities merely subject to environmental forces and organisms that are designed solely for the accumulation of photosynthate.
