Plant Physiology is emerging as the key biological science and it is providing models used in molecular biology for research. The book deals with the physical and physiological processes relevant to plant functions at the molecular and subcellular levels. The book is motivated for a clear understanding of plant structure, organization and function at all levels, with greater emphasis on structure dependent functional attributes. This attempt will help students to appreciate the structural design of plant cells, tissues and organs in terms of their functional correlation. This ensures the suitability of this book for B.Sc., B.Sc. (Hons.), M.Sc. and even Ph.D. students of Botany and to those appearing in various competitive examinations.
