Abstract
We reply to the response by P Calvo, V Raja, and M Segundo-Ortin to our article titled "Plant 'intelligence' and the misuse of historical sources as evidence." Their response draws on the authority of psychologist Edward C. Tolman in support of their suggestion that the study of plant intelligence requires an interdisciplinary approach, including cognitive science and other disciplines. We argue that there is no justification for using Tolman as an authority in support of the study of plant intelligence. For Tolman, psychology was confined to the study of organisms with brains, and therefore his comment, when taken in context, has no bearing on the subject of plant intelligence. Calvo et al.'s use of this quotation is a further example of the misuse of a historical authority to support their claim that disciplines such as cognitive science can be applied to the study of those plant behaviors that they consider to be "intelligent."
我们就 P Calvo、V Raja 和 M Segundo-Ortin 对我们题为 "植物'智力'和滥用历史资料作为证据 "的文章的回应作出答复。他们在回复中引用了心理学家爱德华-托尔曼（Edward C. Tolman）的权威观点来支持他们的建议，即植物智能的研究需要跨学科的方法，包括认知科学和其他学科。我们认为，将托尔曼作为支持植物智能研究的权威是没有道理的。在托尔曼看来，心理学仅限于研究有大脑的生物，因此他的评论从上下文来看，与植物智能这一主题无关。卡尔沃等人使用这段引文的另一个例子是滥用历史权威来支持他们的主张，即认知科学等学科可以应用于研究他们认为 "聪明 "的植物行为。
期刊介绍：
Protoplasma publishes original papers, short communications and review articles which are of interest to cell biology in all its scientific and applied aspects. We seek contributions dealing with plants and animals but also prokaryotes, protists and fungi, from the following fields:
cell biology of both single and multicellular organisms
molecular cytology
the cell cycle
membrane biology including biogenesis, dynamics, energetics and electrophysiology
inter- and intracellular transport
the cytoskeleton
organelles
experimental and quantitative ultrastructure
cyto- and histochemistry
Further, conceptual contributions such as new models or discoveries at the cutting edge of cell biology research will be published under the headings "New Ideas in Cell Biology".
