The objective of this note is to provide
a knowledge of basic botany, teach specific information about economically
important plants, and instill skills in critically researching a topic on an
economically important plant. Topics covered includes: plant morphology and
taxonomy, Plant anatomy and physiology, Plant anatomy, Vegetable plants,
Flowering plants, Spices, Herbs; Essential oils, fragrances, perfumes, Genetics;
plant breeding, cultivars, Cereal grains, Alcoholic beverages, Gordon Biersch
Brewery, Fiber plants,Medicinal plants.
This book will add to the scientific knowledge of the readers on the
molecular aspects of plants. This book will help to strengthen the scientific
background of the readers on plants and deliver the message regarding plants for
the future, in food security, health, industry, and other areas.
If we can gain understanding of how plants grow, then we may be
able to manipulate it to reduce both chemical fertilizer use and its
environmental impact without decreasing the yield. This book provides
information about the use of bio-agents, plant health, plant pathogen, property
of melanin, and the influence of rootstock and root growth. Major topics covered
are: The Use of Bio-Agents for Management of Potato Diseases, Plant Health, The
Organic Amendment Improve the Yield and Quality of Vegetable, Plant Pathogens,
Making Soil More Accessible to Plants, Coumarin&
This book, explains the synthesis of information
for developing strategies to combat plant stress. The information covered in
this book would bridge the much-researched area of stress in plants with the
much-needed information for evolving climate-ready crop cultivars to ensure food
security in the future.
This book is designed to furnish classes
in our schools and colleges with a suitable text book of Structural and
Physiological Botany, as well as private students with a convenient introductory
manual, adapted to the present condition of the science.
The
Plants Database provides standardized information about the vascular plants,
mosses, liverworts, hornworts, and lichens of the U.S. and its territories.
This book covers the following topics: Plant Societies, The Plant Body, Seeds and Germination, The Root — The Forms of
Roots, Function and Structure, The Stem — Kinds and Forms, Pruning and General
Structure, Leaves: Form, Position, Structure, Anatomy and Function or Work,
Fruits.
This note contains the following
subtopics of Plant physiology , Plant Cells, Water and Transport,
Growth/Development and Hormones, Plant Responses to the Environment and
Metabolism.

Nathaniel Lord Britton was the first director-in-chief of The New
York Botanical Garden and a giant of a taxonomist. From 1896 to 1898 he
published the three-volume landmark floristic study An Illustrated Flora of the
Northern United States and Canada (Brown financed it), and revised it again in
1913. This book contains 149 individual plant files, each with illustration, taxonomy, distribution
and current botanical name.
