DNA And Types of DNA  DNA : Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the molecule which carries the genetic instructions for almost every living thing. Its unique chemistry not only allows this information to be copied and passed on to an organism’s descendants, it also allows scientists opportunities to investigate and manipulate an organism at a molecular level. As a result, molecular biology techniques are at the forefront of most cutting-edge scientific research. For decades, DNA was largely an academic subject ..read more

 Economic aspects of applied anatomy:  Economic Aspects of Applied Anatomy There Are Occasions When Herbarium Botanists Find That It Is Difficult To Assign A Particular Species Or Genus To A Family. • General Affinities Are Suspected But There Is Insufficient Evidence For Them To Place A Taxon In A Particular Family. • Additional Anatomical Evidence May Be Of Help And There Are Many Times When Little Extra Helpful Information Comes From The Anatomy. When flowers and fruits are absent! • Leaf fragments, wood and roots or twigs may have readily recognizable features which can ..read more

Origin of gymnosperms download pdf Angiosperms form the most dominant group of plants with at least 253,300 species (Thorne, 2007). Angiosperms are also found in a far greater range of habitats than any other group of land plants. The phylogeny of angiosperms is a much-debated subject, largely because of very poor records of the earliest angiosperms. These earliest angiosperms probably lived in habitats which were not best suited for fossilization. ORIGIN OF ANGIOSPERMS With the exception of conifer forest and moss-lichen tundra, angiosperms dominate all major terrestrial vegetation ..read more

Bentham and Hooker classification George Bentham and Joseph Dalton Hooker - Two English taxonomists who were closely associated with the Royal Botanical Garden at Kew, England have given a detailed classification of plant kingdom, particularly the angiosperms. They gave an outstanding system of classification of phanerogams in their Genera Plantarum which was published in three volumes between the years 1862 to 1883. It is a natural system of classification. However, it does not show the evolutionary relationship between different groups of plants, in the strict sense. Nevertheless, it is ..read more

                             Concepts of Botany General Concepts in Plant Diversity                     The scientific study of plants is called botany. The term botany has been derived from Latin word Botane meaning pasture. Previously, it was also called as phytology because in Greek, the word phyton is used for plant. So, study of plants was called as phytology. Botany involves the study of plants in all respects including morphology, anatomy, cytology, histolo ..read more

Regulation of transcription in plants: mechanisms controlling developmental switches Unlike animals, plants produce new organs throughout their life cycle using pools of stem cells that are organized in meristems. Although many key regulators of meristem and organ identities have been identified, it is still not well understood how they function at the molecular level and how they can switch an entire developmental programme in which thousands of genes are involved. Recent advances in the genome-wide identification of target genes controlled by key plant transcriptional regulators and their ..read more
