About The Book

The meadow of plant physiology includes the study of all the inside actions of plants-those chemical and physical processes connected with life as they arise in plants. This comprises study at a lot of stages of scale of size and time. At the negligible scale are molecular connections of photosynthesis and internal diffusion of water, minerals, and nutrients. At the largest scale are the processes of plant development, seasonality, dormancy, and reproductive control. In order to understand the mechanism of a plant in its entirety many separate phases of the dynamic activity of plants have been recognized and studied as individual processes. In his efforts to interpret these individual processes and their interrelationships the plant physiologist is confronted with many problems: What is the mechanism by which water, gases, and solutes enter a plant from its environment? The information contained in this book would be invaluable asset for the students, teachers and researchers of plant physiology, botany and plant science.
