Author: Dr. Kalyan Das
Published by: Mahaveer Publications
This book is structured as per the Botany major and minor syllabus of Dibrugarh, Gauhati, and other Indian universities and autonomous colleges. It covers key aspects of plant morphology, anatomy, and embryology with an emphasis on both theoretical concepts and practical applications.
The book explores the differentiation of plant tissues and organs, including meristems, vascular tissues, secondary growth, and adaptive structures in xerophytes and hydrophytes. It provides a detailed study of floral structures, pollination mechanisms, fertilization, and seed dispersal. The development of embryos and endosperms, along with concepts of apomixis and polyembryony, is also discussed.
A dedicated practical section includes microscopic studies of plant tissues, reproductive structures, pollination types, and seed dispersal mechanisms. This book serves as a comprehensive resource for students to understand the structural and reproductive biology of angiosperms.
