Mechanical stimulation, including wind exposure, is a common environmental factor for plants and can significantly impact plant phenotype, development, and growth. Most responses to external mechanical stimulation are defined by the term thigmomorphogenesis. While these morphogenetic changes in growth and development may not be immediately apparent, their end-results can be substantial. Although mostly studied in dicotyledonous plants, recently monocot grasses, particularly cereal crops, have received more attention. This review summarizes current knowledge on mechanical stimulation in plants, particularly focusing on the molecular, physiological, and phenological responses in cereals, and explores practical applications to sustainably improve the resilience of agricultural crops.
机械刺激，包括风吹，是植物常见的环境因素，会显著影响植物的表型、发育和生长。对外部机械刺激的大多数反应由“触变形态发生”这一术语定义。虽然这些生长和发育中的形态发生变化可能不会立即显现，但其最终结果可能相当显著。尽管大多在双子叶植物中进行研究，但最近单子叶禾本科植物，尤其是谷类作物，受到了更多关注。本综述总结了关于植物机械刺激的现有知识，特别关注谷类作物的分子、生理和物候反应，并探讨了可持续提高农作物抗逆性的实际应用。
