About the Book
This textbook provides a thorough understanding of modern topics in Botany, with a focus on biochemical, physiological, and molecular aspects. The book is divided into three sections:

• Section I: Biochemistry and Metabolism
  This section introduces the biochemical processes in plants, providing insight into the essential metabolic pathways and reactions that sustain plant life.

• Section II: Developmental Physiology
  Here, the focus is on the physiological processes that govern plant development, including growth, cellular differentiation, and tissue formation.

• Section III: Plant Biotechnology
  This section delves into the cutting-edge advancements in plant biotechnology, covering topics such as Ti plasmids, transposable elements, and the creation of transgenic plants.

The book also includes dedicated chapters on bioinformatics and biosignalling, two critical areas in the modern study of Botany. With its emphasis on contemporary issues, this book is ideal for students and researchers looking to explore both the classical and emerging concepts in the field of Botany.
