Plant Physiology

As botany is an integrative science, both drawing from and contributing to various fields, a knowledge of plant physiology, which forms the most serious aspect of botanical studies, becomes highly crucial. Knowledge of botany is basic to serious work in agriculture, horticulture, forestry and conservation, and physiology becomes an inevitable aspect therein. Conceptualised and designed as an introductory manual to the subject, this book focuses upon plant physiology as a crucial component of botany. Apart from delineating the principles, processes and concepts in undertakes a serious look at the practices of plant physiology particularly as pragmatism and application of knowledge lie behind the study of science.
