title: Gravity related features of plant growth behavior studied with rotating machines.
abstract: Research in plant physiology consists mostly of studies on plant growth because almost everything a plant does is done by growing.  Most aspects of plant growth are strongly influenced by the earth's gravity vector.  Research on those phenomena address scientific questions specifically about how plants use gravity to guide their growth processes.
