Default Plants Communicate

ChrisK posted a link in the thread "Winter Reading" a while back on scientific research being done on how plants communicate with each other through microbes in the soil. The link below is a simplified article on how it is believed to work. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-22462855

The original scientific link; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2954164/
