This book was released on 2023-01-06 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angiosperms Anatomy deals the structure and function of higher plants. Plant Anatomy, in layman's terms, is the study of plants with particular attention paid to their interior structure. Here, we learn how plants are built from the ground up, starting with cells and progressing through layers of organisation into tissues and finally, the numerous organs that make up the plant. Even in the twenty-first century, the study of plant anatomy is crucial to the fields of systematics, paleobotany, and the emerging field of developmental genetics, which bridges scientific fields and use several methods to analyse gene expression in developing tissues. Integrating morphological and molecular data, in particular, is becoming more important in modern research. More ecosystems, especially those on land, are dominated by angiosperms than any other category of plants. The seeds of angiosperms constitute the most important final food source for many species of birds and animals, including humans. The pharmaceutical industry, the fibre industry, the lumber industry, the decorative plant industry, and many other commercial sectors all rely heavily on green plants and blooming plants in particular. As this book the inner and exterior structures are usually more intricate in plants of a higher order. The anatomy of blooming plants is where you'll find the most in-depth examinations of their internal structure. The highly specialised cells and tissues found in plants aid in the plant's ability to manufacture food, produce food, and store food for later use. There are two primary types of plant tissues that are made up of these cells; meristematic and persistent.

Download or read book Contemporary Problems in Plant Anatomy written by Richard White and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Problems in Plant Anatomy contains the proceedings of a plant anatomy symposium that took place at Duke University and The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1983. The symposium addressed challenges in four basic research areas in contemporary plant anatomy: leaf development, floral development, differentiation of cells and tissues, and systematic and ecological anatomy. The book highlights new techniques and approaches for dealing with problems in each of these areas. Organized into 12 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the stem-conducting tissues in monocotyledons; the development of vascular tissue patterns in the shoot apex of ferns; the role of subsidiary trace bundles in stem and leaf development of the dicotyledoneae; and the structure of phloem. It then discusses the cellular parameters of leaf morphogenesis in maize and tobacco; alternative modes of organogenesis in higher plants; morphological aspects of leaf development in ferns and angiosperms; the origin of symmetry in flowers; and intraspecific floral variation. The reader is also introduced to structural correlations among wood, leaves, and plant habit; relationships between structure and function in trees; and the development of inflorescence, androecium, and gynoecium with reference to palms. This book is a valuable source of information for plant anatomists.

The book is focused on angiosperm species with some examples from different groups of plants. "Essentials of Developmental Plant Anatomy" starts with an introductory chapter and a brief introduction to plant cell structure, which is followed by the structure of the flower, plant reproduction (vegetative and sexual) and the development and structure of embryo - the precursor to the plant body. Each chapter then deals with essential information on the shoot system, diversity of plant cells and tissues, the structure and development of the stem, leaf, root, and the secondary body.
Download or read book Plant Anatomy written by Richard Crang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 739 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended as a text for upper-division undergraduates, graduate students and as a potential reference, this broad-scoped resource is extensive in its educational appeal by providing a new concept-based organization with end-of-chapter literature references, self-quizzes, and illustration interpretation. The concept-based, pedagogical approach, in contrast to the classic discipline-based approach, was specifically chosen to make the teaching and learning of plant anatomy more accessible for students. In addition, for instructors whose backgrounds may not primarily be plant anatomy, the features noted above are designed to provide sufficient reference material for organization and class presentation. This text is unique in the extensive use of over 1150 high-resolution color micrographs, color diagrams and scanning electron micrographs. Another feature is frequent side-boxes that highlight the relationship of plant anatomy to specialized investigations in plant molecular biology, classical investigations, functional activities, and research in forestry, environmental studies and genetics, as well as other fields. Each of the 19 richly-illustrated chapters has an abstract, a list of keywords, an introduction, a text body consisting of 10 to 20 concept-based sections, and a list of references and additional readings. At the end of each chapter, the instructor and student will find a section-by-section concept review, concept connections, concept assessment (10 multiple-choice questions), and concept applications. Answers to the assessment material are found in an appendix. An index and a glossary with over 700 defined terms complete the volume.

Download or read book Anatomy Of Angiosperms written by Dr. Kalidoss Rajendran and published by Academic Guru Publishing House. This book was released on 2023-10-16 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book titled “The Basic Anatomy of Angiosperms” provides a great resource for learning about the fundamental anatomy and features of blooming plants. This book explores the complex anatomy of angiosperms, explaining how many organs and tissues contribute to the plants’ capacity for survival and procreation. The book describes the key parts of angiosperm plants, such as the stems, roots, flowers, leaves, reproductive organs, and fruits. It explains how these parts work and have evolved to do certain tasks, including as absorbing nutrients, producing energy via photosynthesis, moving water throughout the plant, and reproducing. Readers will get an understanding of the plant’s ability to anchor it while taking in nutrients at the root level, the stem’s position as a support structure and the vascular tissues’ transport function, and the leaves’ importance as the principal sites of photosynthesis. The book also delves into flowers’ roles in the reproductive process, explaining how sepals, petals, stamens, as well as pistils all play a part. The book focuses mostly on the various shapes and sizes of fruits, how they grow from the ovaries after fertilization, and their function in the life cycle of a plant as a means of seed preservation and distribution. The book’s goal is to provide readers a solid grounding in the anatomy of angiosperms, with a special focus on the role that anatomy plays in ecological settings, plant changes, and the continued existence and spread of these remarkable plants. It’s perfect for budding botanists, aspiring researchers, and curious laypeople who want to learn more about the inner workings of blooming plants.
