The phenomenon of an organism growing at an angle to gravity; essentially another term for diageotropism.
From Greek 'dia-' (through), 'geo-' (earth), and '-tropy' (turning toward), describing angled growth relative to Earth's pull.
This less common synonym for diageotropism shows how biology has multiple ways of naming the same phenomenon—a quirk of how scientific vocabulary develops over time!
