    I love this bit from the op's link.
    "Everyone knows that plants react to light, and scientists also know that plants use volatile chemicals to communicate with each other, for instance, when danger - such as a herbivore - approaches," Dr. Gagliano said in a university news release.

    Rosie : "Holy **** Daisy, what should we do" ?

    Daisy : :confused:

    It works against smaller herbivores though. Trees will release a chemical when being attacked by caterpillars which tells other trees around, those trees will then increase production of toxins in their leaves to fend off the insects.
