Hey there !
This basic sense, or contact stimulus, is important for the growth and development of many organisms. In climbing plants, thigmotropism helps them direct the pattern of growth around an object that is in contact with the plant; the hormones auxin and ethylene are used to facilitate this growth process.
Hope it helps you !

Thigmotropism is the directional response of a plant organ to touch or physical contact with a solid object. This directional response is generally caused by the induction of some pattern of differential growth. This phenomenon is clearly illustrated by the climbing tendrils of some plants, such as the sweet pea.
