Inosculation and Reticulated Life Above and Below Soil

This blogger is light years away from possessing an encyclopedic mind. And the other day I received an alert about Inosculation ? And what does it mean? In metaphorical terms we could argue that it is the bodily fusion between individuals who were born individually, and can occur between trunks, branches and roots. Often, in the final product, they can become indistinguishable . Informative Literature in Castilian Spanish is always repeated in the same terms, being scarce, very scarce. In the same way, the contents of the Spanish and English Wikipedia are a carbon copy of each other. It would be a curious and anecdotal topic. I myself have seen the fusion of trunks and roots in beech forests when I was doing my doctoral thesis. I assumed it was a mirage to my vision. However, we had already talked about another type of Inosculation, when discussing the role of mycorrhizae that function as underground wiring, that is, in the soil, which serves to exchange nutrients and perhaps some other type of information and microorganisms between plants of the same , and even different species.

Taxonomy, since different taxa also exchange genes with each other . Surely the simile (or not so similar) to this word is that of graft . I am struck by the limited material that Canada Mobile Number List exists on the Internet on this topic. Possibly the process can be explained by the word Inosculation or other alternatives. However, I leave it here for you. Likewise, this time I begin by detailing the previous posts I have written about hard-wired life underground and reticulate evolution . Of course, they rethink the meaning of individuality or What is an individual? I have the impression that this is a process in general terms, little valued and less studied, both in ecology and in research on evolution. Below the posts, I leave you the little material that I have been able to find. Curiously, with regard to graphic material, which is much more abundant, it can be seen that artists and gardeners have made more use of plants that suffer or enjoy Inosculation than scientists.

Inosculation A curious biological phenomenon makes it sometimes impossible to distinguish where one tree ends and another begins Inosculation is a phenomenon by which the branches, roots or trunks of two trees join together. Although it usually occurs between members of the same species, many examples of inosculation between specimens of different species have been described.
