Here's a study where healing of wounds is three times faster using electric fields applied to the wound site: https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2023/LC/D2LC01045C https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2023/LC/D2LC0... Cell movement seems to be impacted by electricity in humans. Perhaps the same is true for plants, and can be part of the explanation behind this?

Doesn't make sense. Your paper references a highly controlled field on a chip. Those metal rods are plugged into earth. They don't do anything particular in regards of electronic fields.

There aren't any batteries or electricity here. There's just copper wire. There's no appreciable electric field, just a wire that is at best absorbing some ambient radio waves and heating up incredibly slightly.
