Aujourd'hui on passe chez les végétaux pour voir l'organisme qu'on estime être le plus lourd de la terre : la "forêt" de Pando, dans l’Utah. Je vous explique les guillemets juste en dessous, mais d'abord un message de service :
Je reçois beaucoup de demande d'abonnements depuis que j'ai commencé et ça m'embête un peu car en fait ce que je fais là est assez éloigné de ma production habituelle. Si coup si vous voulez juste suivre le calendrier de l’Avent, ça sera avec #ArtBiologyAvent (merci @Lisoo !), même pas besoin de follow 😁
Après si ce que je fais autour vous intéresse aussi, c'est toujours avec plaisir 😌

#Pando is a massive clonal colony of a single male quaking aspen tree, located in Utah.
Despite appearing as a forest of over 40,000 individual trunks, all stems are genetically identical and connected by a single, vast underground root system, making it a single organism.

new episode of Leaf it to Us out, by Dr Aly Baumgartner and Nora is about plant superorganisms, like Pando, the famous giant clonal aspen grove in fishlake Utah. It's a great episode, but it's not big enough, and I confess I was hoping for more technical detail about these amazing organisms.

#KnowledgeByte: #Pando, the world's largest living organism, is a massive clonal colony of quaking aspen trees located in Utah's Fishlake National Forest.
This ancient organism has been growing for thousands of years, with some estimates placing its age at around 80,000 years!

Pando: el ser viviente más antiguo y extenso del planeta
Utah, 10 nov (elmundo.cr)– En el bosque nacional de Fishlake, en Utah, Estados Unidos, se encuentra uno de los organismos más antiguos y asombrosos del mundo: Pando, un bosque clonal de álamos temblones (Populus tremuloides) que, a simple vista, podría parecer un conjunto de árboles individuales. Sin embargo, este gigante es un solo orga [...]

The #Pando forest is one of world’s oldest beings. DNA from "Pando" — a vast forest made up of a single root system sprouting nearly 50,000 cloned quaking aspen trees — seems to confirm that it is one of the oldest organisms on Earth. Researchers sequenced hundreds of samples from the Populus tremuloides and found that it is between 16,000 and 80,000 years old. They were also able to track patterns of genetic variation throughout the tree, offering clues about how it has adapted and evolved over the course of its extensive lifetime.

In the Wasatch Mountains of the western US on the slopes above a spring-fed lake, there dwells a single giant organism that provides an entire ecosystem on which plants and animals have relied for thousands of years.
"Pando" is a 106-acre stand of quaking aspen clones.

Did you know the largest living organism on Earth is slowly being eaten? Meet "Pando," a massive 106-acre stand of quaking aspen clones in Utah's Wasatch Mountains.
What looks like a forest of individual trees is actually 47,000 genetically identical stems, all connected by a single root system. Weighing in at around 6,000 metric tons, Pando is the heaviest living organism on the planet and has supported an entire ecosystem for thousands of years. Unfortunately, this living giant is now under threat.

We can now hear one of the largest and most ancient living organisms on Earth whisper with the tremble of a million leaves echoing through its roots.
#Bolivien wird auch in diesem Jahr von verheerenden Waldbränden heimgesucht: die Feuer wüten seit Juni vor allem in den Regionen #SantaCruz, #Beni und #Pando, bisher wurden mehr als 3,8 Millionen Hektar Land durch die Brände zerstört. https://amerika21.de/2024/09/271448/bolivien-waldbraende-rauch-hilfe
Sometime around the end of the last ice age
—around 20,000 years ago
—a single aspen seed rooted, sprouted, and began cloning itself
in what is now central Utah.
Known as #Pando, which comes from the Latin “I spread,”
🔸the world’s largest known organism continues to grow today,
🔹comprising more than 40,000 individual trees.
🔸Every trunk emerged as a shoot from the same root system,
🔹and scientists estimate Pando weighs about 13 million pounds.
For photographer Mitch Epstein, the phenomenal resilience, scale, and lengthy lifespans of trees form the basis of his ongoing series #Old #Growth.
