Suction takes place after mechanical triggering and is owing to a release of stored elastic energy in the trap body accompanied by a very fast opening and closing of a trapdoor, which otherwise closes the trap entrance watertight. The exceptional trapping speed\u2014far above human visual perception\u2014impeded profound investigations until now. Using high-speed video imaging and special microscopy techniques, we obtained fully time-resolved recordings of the door movement. We found that this unique trapping mechanism conducts suction in less than a millisecond and therefore ranks among the fastest plant movements known. Fluid acceleration reaches very high values, leaving little chance for prey animals to escape. We discovered that the door deformation is morphologically predetermined, and actually performs a buckling\/unbuckling process, including a complete trapdoor curvature inversion. This process, which we predict using dynamical simulations and simple theoretical models, is highly reproducible: the traps are autonomously repetitive as they fire spontaneously after 5\u201320 h and reset actively to their ready-to-catch condition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1098\/rspb.2010.2292","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,2,16]],"date-time":"2011-02-16T21:55:30Z","timestamp":1297893330000},"page":"2909-2914","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1098\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":108,"title":["Ultra-fast underwater suction traps"],"prefix":"10.1098","volume":"278","author":[{"given":"Olivier","family":"Vincent","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique, UMR 5588 CNRS and University of Grenoble 1, 140 Avenue de la Physique, 34802 Saint Martin d'H\u00e8res Cedex, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carmen","family":"Wei\u00dfkopf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Plant Biomechanics Group Freiburg, Botanic Garden, Faculty of Biology, University of Freiburg, Sch\u00e4nzlestrasse 1, 79104 Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simon","family":"Poppinga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Plant Biomechanics Group Freiburg, Botanic Garden, Faculty of Biology, University of Freiburg, Sch\u00e4nzlestrasse 1, 79104 Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tom","family":"Masselter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Plant Biomechanics Group Freiburg, Botanic Garden, Faculty of Biology, University of Freiburg, Sch\u00e4nzlestrasse 1, 79104 Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Speck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Plant Biomechanics Group Freiburg, Botanic Garden, Faculty of Biology, University of Freiburg, Sch\u00e4nzlestrasse 1, 79104 Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marc","family":"Joyeux","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique, UMR 5588 CNRS and University of Grenoble 1, 140 Avenue de la Physique, 34802 Saint Martin d'H\u00e8res Cedex, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Catherine","family":"Quilliet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique, UMR 5588 CNRS and University of Grenoble 1, 140 Avenue de la Physique, 34802 Saint Martin d'H\u00e8res Cedex, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philippe","family":"Marmottant","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique, UMR 5588 CNRS and University of Grenoble 1, 140 Avenue de la Physique, 34802 Saint Martin d'H\u00e8res Cedex, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"175","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,2,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.5962\/bhl.title.99933","volume-title":"Insectivorous plants.","author":"Darwin C.","year":"1875"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","volume-title":"The carnivorous plants.","author":"Lloyd F.
