Biology.

Of the nature of electrotaxis; exhibiting or characterized by electrotaxis.

1897 Amer. Naturalist 31 975 The reason why the infusoria are not forced beyond the circumference by the electric current is that they are less strongly electrotactic than chemotactic.

1968 Jrnl. Appl. Ecol. 5 208 The larger fish of 25 cm and upwards showed the electrotactic effect very well.

1990 J. W. Hart Plant Tropisms & Other Growth Movements vi.167 Electrotactic and electrotropic responses may be involved in the behaviour of root pathogens.

2006 Jrnl. Cell Sci. 119 4742/1 Ca²⁺ signalling has been proposed to play an essential role in the electrotactic response.
