Plants exhibit forms of asymmetry analogous to "handedness" in bilaterally symmetrical animals. This book explores the evolutionary significance and development of asymmetry. Examples of genetic control include the direction of tendril or stem coiling of many climbing plants; the so-called spiral phyllotaxy and floral taxy; and contorted petal arra...

Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) is a tree in the family Euphorbiaceae whose members have been known for the production of important natural compounds for therapeutic applications. Physic nut is also one of the few important plant species whose genome has been fully sequenced under high scrutiny, mostly because it is a potential source of oil, which...

The Origins and Conceptual definitions of the words handedness, asymmetry, Chirality and helicity are provided. The confusions prevailing in the use of these words are clarified.

Development includes process such as cell division (including cell cycle), cell enlargement, differentiation, pattern formation and morphogenesis. A detailed account on cell cycle and its hormonal and genetic control has been provided. Differenti...

This chapter deals with meristems and their importance in the organization of the primary and secondary plant body. The meristem concept is explained with particular reference to initial stem cells and paremacy of initials.

Leaves are the most important organs of plants and carry out very vital physiological activities such as photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration, photoreception and synthesis and supply of signal compounds, including growth regulators. They are always associated with shoot apical meristems from which they arise. Leaves are arranged on the stem w...

This chapter provides an overview of the flowering plants or angiosperms. The unique features of angiosperms are described, and based on these features, the evolutionary and phylogenetic history of angiosperm is traced. The chapter also gives details on distribution, phytogeography, growth habit, life form classes, root and shoot systems, leaves, i...

This chapter deals with plant organization at the cellular level which is the fundamental level of biological integration also. Since cells are often considered as the basic structural and functional unit of any biological organism, organization at the cellular level forms the basis for understanding organization at the higher levels. This chapter...

The flower is a unique feature of flowering plants. Recent research on molecular biology has indicated that a flower is the result of expression and interplay of several genes operating in a sequence. At least four pathways trigger floral evocation: temperature pathway (vernalization and ambient pathways), light quality pathway, photoperiod pathway...

In addition to natural embryogenesis termed “apomixis” in some species, plant cells can also be induced to form embryos in plant tissue culture. Such embryos are called somatic embryos and can be used to generate plants from single cells. Plants possess cellular totipotency which makes it feasible for individual somatic cells to regenerate into a w...

Plant epigenetics has become one of the hottest topics of research not only as a subject of basic research but also as a possible new source of beneficial traits for plant breeding. In addition, epigenetic mechanisms are also crucial to appropriate plant reactions to stress. Given the sessile lifestyle and the late differentiation of the germ line,...

Present-day cultivars of crop species have become susceptible to a range of biotic and abiotic stresses because of their narrow genetic base. The genes imparting resistance to these stresses are no more available within the cultivated species but are present in many wild and weedy relatives. To transfer desirable genes to the cultivars, the product...

Jatropha curcas L. is a monoecious pantropical shrub or treelet and grows everywhere in tropical and sub-tropical areas without any human care. It is entomophilous with sticky pollen that does not disperse by wind, but only by insects carrying it from male to female flowers. Honeybees can be employed for pollination purpose; they are efficient and...
