Plant Structures
Plant Structures are the physical parts of plants and their arrangement. They range from microscopic cells and cell components to the large vascular tissues that move nutrients and water between the roots, leaves and flowers. Plant Structures are important for many aspects of plant life, from protection from predators to the transport of nutrients, along with allowing plants to capture energy from the sun. Plants can also use their Structures to communicate with other plants and the environment. Understanding how plant Structures interact with one another is essential to understanding how plants grow and are used by humans in various contexts, such as agriculture, forestry and horticulture. Plant Structure research and advances in genetic engineering are at the forefront of modern advances in plant sciences, making it a very important field of research.
