Introduction: The world’s total forest area is just over 4 billion hectares‚ which corresponds to an average of 0.6 ha per capita (Figure 1). The five most forest-rich countries (the Russian Federation‚ Brazil‚ Canada‚ the United States of America and China) account for more than half of the total forest area. Deforestation – mainly the conversion of tropical forest to agricultural land – shows signs of decreasing in several countries. Around 13 million hectares of forest were converted to

plants experiment‚ each group received the F1 generation seeds for their designated phenotypes. After receiving the seeds‚ the seeds were then planted into Styrofoam “quads” allowing the seeds to germinate. The seeds were then allowed to grow under a fluorescent light bank for 5 weeks. Throughout the growing of the seeds‚ each plant was continuously watered and adjusted the light bank to help the plant grow more efficiently. After letting the seeds germinate for approximately 14 days‚ after two or three

common pea seeds. The independent variable in this experiment is the replica of the acid rain (or the PH level)‚ while the dependent variable is the growth/and or germination of the pea seeds. This is a common problem in our environment today as rain continually gets more acidic. Our hypotheses in this experiment were that the growth of the pea seeds in the experimental or acid rain setup would be far less than that of the normal or control setup. Another would be that the experimental pea seeds would

The decreasing values of MDA in treatment with jojoba seeds extract was lower than treatment with riboflavin‚ the decreasing values of TBARS at 100‚ 500‚ and 1000 µg/ml jojoba seeds extract were 30.22‚ 24.44 and 18.19 µmol and in riboflavin treatment at 0.5 ‚1 and 2.5 mM the decreasing values were 31.53‚ 27.79 and 35.11 µ mol‚ respectively compared to infected plants

flowering plants show sexual reproduction. A look at the diversity of structures of the inflorescences‚ flowers and floral parts‚ shows an amazing range of adaptations to ensure formation of the end products of sexual reproduction‚ the fruits and seeds. In this chapter‚ let us understand the morphology‚ structure and the processes of sexual reproduction in flowering plants (angiosperms). 2.1 FLOWER – A FASCINATING ORGAN OF ANGIOSPERMS Human beings have had an intimate relationship with flowers

Plants are very sensitive to their environment and have evolved many forms of "tropisms" in order to ensure their survival. A tropism is a growth movement whose direction is determined by the direction
