Electrical Signal Analysis of Different Types of Oxygen Efficient Plants

Abstract

Plants have an electrical signal, which is a weak signal. These signals vary during the growth of plants, the stress of plant. Environment changes are observed by their electrophysiological signals. Four plants of different species have been connected to channel of BIOPAC MP36 set-up individually at different instant of time, then the signal variations in plants have been observed at different time day(sunlight intensity 60000 lx to 80000 lx) and night (less than 500 lx). However, the statistical parameters of electrical signal like amplitude, mean, variance, RMS value, standard deviation, mean square value etc. have been analyzed. The resulting oxygen efficient plant (Epipremnum aureum, Ocimum tenuiflorum) shows maximum statistical parameters of the electrical signal as compared to other plants like Aloe-Vera and Cord line Fruticosa.
