The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is classified as a fruit--more specifically, a berry--due to its botanical characteristics, although it is commonly used as a vegetable in culinary contexts. It is edible, shiny, and smooth. In January 2024, Japanese scientists Yuri Aratani and Takuya Uemura, molecular biologists at Saitama University, along with their colleagues, recorded real-time footage of plants communicating with each other for the first time. To capture this communication, the team used leaves cut from tomato plants and Arabidopsis thaliana. The footage revealed that plants release airborne compounds, akin to scents, which form a fine mist serving as a medium for communication. The researchers believe the plants use this mechanism to warn each other of imminent threats. For instance, the video demonstrated that when a healthy plant detects danger, it produces calcium through its leaves. Tomatoes are a rich source of nutrients and phytochemicals, including lycopene, vitamin C, and other antioxidants. They also contain phenolic compounds such as hydroxycinnamic acids, flavonoids, and chlorogenic acid. Several studies suggest that tomatoes may offer health benefits, including potential anticancer properties.
