Growth on Plants: Factors, Regions and Pattern

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Factors Affecting Growth 2. Regions of Growth 3. Pattern. Factors Affecting Growth: (i) Temperature: The growth of a plant occurs in the range of about 0°C to 35°C. Within most of this range, raising of the temperature by 10°C increases growth rate by 2-3 times. There are three temperatures known as the [...]

Study Notes on Cyclic AMP (CAMP) | Plant Physiology

The below mentioned article provides study notes on Cyclic AMP (CAMP). Cyclic AMP was discovered by E.W. Sutherlandt in 1956 in animal liver cells. Since then it has been demonstrated in several animal tissues where its regulatory role has been well demonstrated. There are several evidences regarding the presence of cAMP in plants. Most of these evidences are based on [...]
