Plant-environment Interactions

Plant-environment interactions is a field of science that studies how plants interact with and are affected by their environment. These interactions play an important role in the global carbon cycle, water and nutrient availability, and the health of the soil. Plant-environment interactions also influence how plants are able to tolerate stress and grow, reproduce, and resist pests and diseases. By understanding these interactions, scientists can develop more sustainable agricultural practices, better management of natural ecosystems, and improved conservation efforts.
