Covers the role of fungi as both beneficial and pathogenic organisms in agroecosystems. Details fungal morphology, disease symptoms (necrosis, abnormal growth), beneficial effects (mycorrhizae, antibiotics), and disease control strategies using genetics, cultural practices, and chemical applications for crop health management.
This file deeply explores fatty acids and lipids, including classification, nomenclature, physical properties, biosynthesis, oxidation (beta, alpha, omega), metabolism, structural roles, and energy functions in cells. Includes details on triacylglycerols, waxes, and cholesterol, with molecular diagrams for MSc Botany.
This file provides comparative anatomical descriptions of stems and roots from diverse plant species. It discusses cellular details, tissue types, vascular bundles, secondary growth, and structural adaptations, supporting botanical identification and classification based on internal morphology.
This file details the transport mechanisms in vascular plants, focusing on xylem and phloem tissues. It covers structural features, functions, and the cohesion-tension theory for water transport, as well as pressure interactions and interdependence of xylem and phloem for nutrient and water movement in plant systems.
