  Smell:
  Conference «Communication plant - insect» The male fig trees raise in their figs small insects, called blastophages, which are the exclusive pollinators of the fig tree. They are guided only by the sweet scent of the fig. Several CNRS researchers have studied this plant-insect communication in the Vézénobres conservatory orchard. They will tell the first results obtained and interpret the way of fruiting through a reading of the leaves, figs and buds. Sunday from 10h to 11h30.
