Abstract

The effects of ambient environmental factors on physiological attributes of plants have been explored extensively. Among all the factors, impact of sound on the plants is an interesting aspect to study. This review attempts to comprehend the impact of sound waves on the development and behaviour of the plants. Musical nodes with healing energy have a certain impact on seeds germination. This can enhance overall plant health by improving growth and resistance, beyond chemical triggers.. In past, seed growth and germination behaviour, influenced by different pre-treatments has been studied for different plants. This review is an effort to provide an indication of the recent results, constraints, and prospective applications of sound wave therapy as a physical trigger for modulating physiological characteristics and giving plants an adaptive benefit. Sound wave therapy is now emerging as a fresh promotion for protecting crops from harmful circumstances and maintaining plant fitness.

Highlights

  • Plants develop physiological and developmental changes against environmental difficulties

  • The various types of speed, pitch, loudness and timber characteristics of sound waves have become increasingly common in use for the purpose of plant growth and development and more attention has been paid on the material of environmental stress created by specific music

  • There is a strong link between sound waves and plant growth in many researches, since sound and sonication have a significant effect on plant growth and morphogenesis

Summary

Introduction

Plants develop physiological and developmental changes against environmental difficulties. The various types of speed, pitch, loudness and timber characteristics of sound waves have become increasingly common in use for the purpose of plant growth and development and more attention has been paid on the material of environmental stress created by specific music. In the vast area of agricultural sciences, number of studies have shown the role and vital impact of music on plant growth, improving yield and minimizing the use of fertilizers.
