Abstract
Fundamentals of Plant Physiology is a distillation of the most important principles and empirical findings of plant physiology. First, the book covers plant and cell architecture. Then, it focuses on water and plant cells, water balance of plants, mineral nutrition, assimilation of inorganic nutrients, and solute transport. The text also looks at photosynthesis, translocation in the phloem, respiration and lipid metabolism, signals and signal transduction, signals from sunlight, and embryogenesis. Towards the end of the book, there are chapters that cover seed democracy, germination, seedling establishment, vegetative growth and senescence, flowering, fruit, biotic interactions, and abiotic stress.
