Today, thanks to high spatiotemporal resolution tools and computational modelling, it sets a new standard in plant science. Acquired data, whether molecular, geometric or mechanical, are quantified, statistically assessed and integrated at multiple scales and across fields. They feed testable predictions that, in turn, guide further experimental tests. Quantitative features such as variability, noise, robustness, delays or feedback loops are included to account for the inner dynamics of plants and their interactions with the environment. Here, we present the main features of this ongoing revolution, through new questions around signalling networks, tissue topology, shape plasticity, biomechanics, bioenergetics, ecology and engineering. In the end, quantitative plant biology allows us to question and better understand our interactions with plants. In turn, this field opens the door to transdisciplinary projects with the society, notably through citizen science. specialized 076AMEPLA 020MATH 126TELTRN05 2 e10 [16 ] 2021 2632-8828 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010085845 10.1017/qpb.2021.8 2632-8828 [F B010085845] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010085845 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/2022-11/010085845.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2022-09-09 2025-02-24 fdi:010085845 fre
