About The Book

The Glossary of Plant Physiology is useful compilation of various terminologies not only from the discipline of plant physiology but also some important ones from molecular biology, biochemistry and biotechnology. It is prepared by highly qualified and experience authors and is a production of their life time association with plant physiology. The need for glossary among researchers, teachers and students was long felt and this compilation is expected to fulfill such requirement. In this glossary, an attempt has been made to present the definitions in simple and lucid manner along with suitable examples, illustrations and biological pathways for their easy understanding and clarity, wherever required. The comprehensive list of conversion tables, symbols, abbreviation and uses for plant growth regulators presented in annexure is an extra source of information. The glossary is expected to serve as a ready reckoner of the physiological terms to all those involved in plant physiology.
