Description

Plant physiology is an independent discipline dedicated to understanding the functioning of plants. This book aims to bring forth the advanced topics in this field through a compilation of researches and case studies. It explains the prevalent theories and also elucidates the recently discovered plant processes. This interdisciplinary text highlights the significance of crop physiology and its contribution to other fields such as plant morphology, phytochemistry, genetics, etc. The book discusses in detail, the techniques for postharvest physiology of crops along with methods for better crop production, such as hydroponic methods. This book will serve as a resource guide for crop physiologists, botanists, horticulturalists, researchers, scholars, and students.
