Nature’s latest collab? Tomato plants dropping ultrasonic beats 🎶—and moths are here for it! Israeli researchers just revealed that female moths literally tune into these high-pitched plant vibes to pick prime egg-laying spots. 🌱🔊
In a plot twist worthy of a sci-fi flick, Tel Aviv University scientists found that stressed-out tomato plants emit sounds humans can’t hear. Think of it like a botanical TikTok trend—except instead of dance challenges, it’s survival signals. Earlier research showed dehydrated plants ‘scream’ ultrasonically, but now we know moths are swiping right on these plant playlists. 🚨🪴
Why does this matter? It’s the first proof that plants and animals chat through sound—no Wi-Fi needed. This could revolutionize eco-friendly pest control. Imagine farms blasting moth-repelling tracks instead of using chemicals! 🎧🌍
Pro tip for gardeners: Your tomatoes might be throwing shade (and soundwaves) at hungry insects. Who knew plants had such ~main character~ energy? 😎
