Sample plants with apical node elongation and extreme bending, in wheat from a Maryland, USA crop formation.

• Apical nodes in control plants from the same field, taken a distance away from the crop formation.by putra santoso

Four plants on left (from an Italian crop circle) show apical node elongation & slight bending. Two apical nodes on right are from controls.

NODE BENDING, which may (depending on the age of the crop when formation occurred & time elapsed since then) or may not be indicative of the genuine phenomenon.by putra santoso

Marked bending at the base of conola/oilseed rape plants -- which are known to break, not bend, when mechanically flattened.

Expulsion cavity typical of those often found in crop circlesamples, but very rarely seen in control plants examined

by W.C. Levengood. However, the data indicates thisabnormality is not present in all "genuine" formations.by putra santoso

Expulsion cavity in corn (maize). Thought to result fromintense, very brief bursts of microwaves which

instantly turn the moisture inside theplant stem nodes to steam.by putra santoso

Expulsion cavities in older, mature plants can also look like this example, in mature wheat.by putra santoso (putrasantoso26@gmail.com)

SEED-HEADS, WHEATCrop circle seed-head (right) has no seeds, due to destruction of plant's reproductive capacity. Found only when

crop circles occur in very immature plants.by putra santoso

STUNTED & DEHYDRATEDMAIZE SEEDS (on right).

These occur when embryos are already formed, or partially formed,when crop circle occurs.

CONTROL MAIZE SEEDLINGS AT 7 DAYS

FORMATION MAIZE SEEDLINGS AT 7 DAYSShowing reduced seedling growth-rate, which typically occurs if crop circles form in plants which are at an intermediate growth-stage.

CONTROL SEEDLINGS, 12-DAY WHEATShowing normal variation of growth-rate (height)

for this particular species at this stage of development.by putra santoso

FORMATION SEEDLINGS, 12-DAY WHEATShowing induced synchronization of growth.by putra santoso

(putrasantoso26@gmail.com)

INCREASED GROWTH-RATE OF FORMATION SEEDLINGS(as opposed to controls), in seeds from crop which

was mature when crop circle formed.
