Plant physiology is a sub-discipline of botany concerned with the physical, chemical and biological functioning of plants.

The majority of variation segregating in natural populations is quantitative, and its expression depends on genetic background, environment, and interactions with these two factors. Traditionally, the ...

Students receive a solid foundation of coursework in botany, soil science, plant physiology, genetics, plant identification, plant pathology and chemistry. Students also interact with faculty both in ...

Plant science holds a special place at Connecticut College. Here, botany is its own department ... She has conducted research in various disciplines including physiology of mycorrhizal fungi, DNA ...

Ammonium (NH 4 +) and nitrate (NO 3-) are the primary nitrogen sources, each affecting plant physiology differently. Variations in leaf anatomy, such as cell wall thickness and chloroplast number ...

That enhanced concentration gives the researchers enough material to figure out the structure of any resulting compounds, which could potentially play an important role in plant physiology.

Technologies like visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, and advanced thermal imaging were used to capture changes in plant physiology and morphology. The root system ...
