Biomechanics of tendrils and adhesive pads of the climbing passion flower Passiflora discophora

The climbing passion flower Passiflora discophora features branched tendrils with multiple adhesive pads at their tips allowing it to attach to large-diameter supports and to flat surfaces. We conducted tensile tests to quantify the performance of this attachment system. We found that the force at f...
