An Introduction to Plant Structure and Development
A plant anatomy textbook unlike any other on the market today. Carol A. Peterson described the first edition as 'the best book on the subject of plant anatomy since the texts of Esau'. Traditional plant anatomy texts include primarily descriptive aspects of structure, this book not only provides a comprehensive coverage of plant structure, but also introduces aspects of the mechanisms of development, especially the genetic and hormonal controls, and the roles of plasmodesmata and the cytoskeleton. The evolution of plant structure and the relationship between structure and function are also discussed throughout. Includes extensive bibliographies at the end of each chapter. It provides students with an introduction to many of the exciting, contemporary areas at the forefront of research in the development of plant structure and prepares them for future roles in teaching and research in plant anatomy.
Plant Anatomy
Plant Anatomy is an introduction to the anatomical and histological structure of vegetative and reproductive plant organs. Descriptions of cells and tissues are accompanied by line drawings and light- and electron-micrographs. In recognition of modern research, which has brought to light so many transitional forms, the need for flexibility in the definitions of various elements and tissues is stressed throughout. Gaps in the current knowledge that await further research are identified. The book presents the basic structure and variability of the cells and tissues of vascular plants, as well as considering developmental, functional, evolutionary and ecological aspects. Plant Anatomy is not only a structured introduction to the subject; its review of current literature makes it a valuable reference. About 500 new references have been added, along with new drawings and micrographs.
Plant Anatomy
This book includes Embryology of Angiosperms, Morhogenesis of Angiosperm abd Diversity and Morphology of flowering plants
Essentials of Plant Anatomy
"Essentials of Plant Anatomy" is a comprehensive guide to understanding the intricate structure and organization of plant tissues and organs. This book delves into the fundamental principles of plant anatomy, exploring diverse cell types, tissue systems, and anatomical adaptations that enable plants to grow, develop, and thrive in various environments. We embark on a journey through the microscopic world of plant cells, learning about the specialized functions and interactions of different cell types within tissues such as epidermis, parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma. The book illuminates the role of these tissues in supporting plant growth, providing structural support, storing nutr...

Esau's Plant Anatomy
This revision of the now classic Plant Anatomy offers a completely updated review of the structure, function, and development of meristems, cells, and tissues of the plant body. The text follows a logical structure-based organization. Beginning with a general overview, chapters then cover the protoplast, cell wall, and meristems, through to phloem, periderm, and secretory structures. "There are few more iconic texts in botany than Esau’s Plant Anatomy... this 3rd edition is a very worthy successor to previous editions..." ANNALS OF BOTANY, June 2007
Teaching Plant Anatomy Through Creative Laboratory Exercises
This easy-to-follow, full-colour guide was created for instructors teaching plant structure at the high school, college, and university levels. It benefits from the experience of the authors, who in teaching plant anatomy over many years, came to realize that students learn best by preparing their own microscope slides from fresh plant samples. The exercises contained in this book have been tested, require minimal supplies and equipment, and use plants that are readily available. Detailed instructions are given for sectioning and staining of plant material. The book contains a glossary of terms, an index, and a list of suppliers of materials required. A CD-ROM of all the illustrations is inc...
Crop Plant Anatomy
Divided into four sections covering anatomy in relation to crop management, anatomical descriptions of the major crop plants, anatomical changes in adaptation to environments and the link between anatomy and productivity, this book provides a comprehensive source of crop plant anatomy information. The crop areas covered include cereals, pulses and beans, oil crops and fibre crops. Suitable for students, researchers and professionals in the field, this book brings together economic plant anatomy and crop productivity for the first time.
An Introduction to Plant Anatomy
An elementary text in plant anatomy for class study and a reference text for workers in fields of applied botany. Although introductory in nature, it provides a comprehensive treatment of the fundamenetal facts and aspects of anatomy.
