## Description

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) eX Virentia (eXVi) program is soliciting innovative proposals to determine the efficacy of using existing vegetation as sensors in operational environments. Vegetation in areas of DoD interest are exposed to a variety of conditions. Because vegetation exists and persists within these environments, there is an interest in understanding how plants predictably respond to a variety of chemical exposures.
