Memory in plants: Boolean modeling of the learning and store/recall memory functions in response to environmental stimuli.

-This paper presents a new model of memory functions in plants, which improves the previous approaches done by René Thomas and colleagues. We have decomposed the plant memory processing into three main functions: learning, storing and recalling. We propose as main mechanism for these three functions the occurrence of a calcium wave consecutive to an environmental stimulus, followed by the activation of specific genes and proteins changing their phosphorylated state. Feedback is ensured by Calcium Dependent Protein Kinases and oxidative phosphorylation.
