DESCRIPTION
The book is exceptional in its organization with three major characterstics of plants system i.e. Plant Physiology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology been provided under one cancopy. Physiology, which deals with all the vital activities of a plant and also explains how it reacts to sustain in natural distress; similarly within the plant, types of physiological actions at biochemical level forming innumerable compounds through chains of biochemical reactions at various levels of plant growth and development becomes Biochemistry.
