In the 2007 third edition of her successful textbook, Paula Rudall provides a comprehensive yet succinct introduction to the anatomy of flowering plants. Thoroughly revised and updated throughout, the book covers all aspects of comparative plant structure and development, arranged in a series of chapters on the stem, root, leaf, flower, seed and fruit. Internal structures are described using magnification aids from the simple hand-lens to the electron microscope. Numerous references to recent topical literature are included, and new illustrations reflect a wide range of flowering plant species. The phylogenetic context of plant names has also been updated as a result of improved understanding of the relationships among flowering plants. This clearly written text is ideal for students studying a wide range of courses in botany and plant science, and is also an excellent resource for professional and amateur horticulturists.

A plant anatomy textbook unlike any other on the market today. Carol A. Peterson described the first edition as 'the best book on the subject of plant anatomy since the texts of Esau'. Traditional plant anatomy texts include primarily descriptive aspects of structure, this book not only provides a comprehensive coverage of plant structure, but also introduces aspects of the mechanisms of development, especially the genetic and hormonal controls, and the roles of plasmodesmata and the cytoskeleton. The evolution of plant structure and the relationship between structure and function are also discussed throughout. Includes extensive bibliographies at the end of each chapter. It provides students with an introduction to many of the exciting, contemporary areas at the forefront of research in the development of plant structure and prepares them for future roles in teaching and research in plant anatomy.

For the last 40 years this book has served well the students of Botany, Agriculture and Forestry for their regular courses like BSc. (General and Hons) and MSc., as well as competitive examinations. It has stood the test of time due to the authors’ zeal to update it regularly with inputs from latest developments in the field. Since the last revision of the book, the methods used to study plant embryology have changed radically. Powerful modern biological techniques are now being applied to understand the developmental aspects and genetic and molecular bases of embryological processes. It has become possible to generate tissue specific mutants by T-DNA insertional mutagenesis, use of green fluorescent protein probes for live imaging of growing cells and tissues and to analyze gene expression in few-celled structures, such as early stages of embryo, and constituent cells of the male and female gametophytes. These techniques, combined with the development of high resolution confocal laser scanning microscopy, have provided non-invasive methods to view live processes, such as pollen tube growth in the pistil and double fertilization under in situ conditions. The book has been translated into Japanese and Korean languages. KEY FEATURES • Well established text with content rigorous enough for both UG and PG studies • Covers important topics like development and structure of male and female gametophytes, pollination, fertilization, sexual incompatibility, development of endosperm and embryo, polyembryony, apomixis and seed development • Describes embryology in relation to taxonomy and experimental and applied embryology Use of tables and figures to depict important data and information • Updated as per the new developments in the study of plant embryology

Thirty-four years have elapsed since the publication of the late Professor P. Maheshwari's text, An Introduction to the Embryology of Angiosperms, a work which for many years served as an invaluable guide for students and a rich source book for research workerso Various texts dealing with sections of the braad spectrum oftopics encompassed by Maheshwari in his book have appeared in the interim, but a compendious modem work dealing with the whole field has been lacking. This present volume splendidly meets the need, and it is altogether fitting that Professor B. M. lohri, long an associate and close colleague of Professor Maheshwari and himself a prolific contributor to the subject, should have undertaken the task of editing it. When Maheshwari wrote, it was stiIl feasible for one author to handIe the subject, but today even someone with his fine bread th of vision and depth of understanding could not, alone, do it justice. So the effort has to be a collaborative one; and Professor lohri's achievement has been to bring together a team of authoritative collaborators, assign them their responsibilities, and put them to work to produce a text as integrated in its treatment as the diversity of the subject would allow. The product vividly illustrates the advances that have been made in the study of angiosperm reproductive systems in the last 30 years, and the book is surely destined to become the new standard for student and researcher alike.

The study of the inside structure of plants is often referred to as plant anatomy or phytotomy. Plant anatomy has been regarded as a distinct discipline since the mid-20th century, focusing exclusively on internal plant structure. Initially, it encompassed plant morphology, which described the external structure as well as the physical form of plants. Presently, cellular-level investigations of plant anatomy are commonplace, frequently requiring tissue sectioning and microscopy. The objective of Plant Anatomy and Embryology is to furnish students with comprehensive knowledge regarding the practical elements of Angiosperm reproductive organs, including their internal structure, systematic recognition, and developmental stages. The textbook consists of two sections. Part One of the course is devoted to Plant Anatomy, which encompasses an extensive array of subjects beginning with the most fundamental unit, the cell, and progressing to the intricate internet structures of fruits and seeds, roots, stems, leaves, flowers, meristematic and permanent tissues, normal and abnormal secondary growth, and so forth. Students will find particularly intriguing subjects like Nodal Anatomy, Anatomy of Floral Parts, Fruit Walls and Seed Coat, Ecological Anatomy, as well as Systematic Plant Anatomy. The book is distinguished by its straightforward and natural illustrations that complement the straightforward and concise text. The second part addresses plant embryology and palynology, as well as the structural lifestyle. It is chaptered appropriately. The subject will undoubtedly encompass awareness of topics such as Apomixis, Polyembryony, Experimental Embryology, Sexual Incompatibility, Classical as well as Applied Palynology, and more. The integration of flowcharts, comparative tables, and plain and cogent illustrations into the revised textbook will facilitate the students' comprehension of the subject. Students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees at any university, as well as those preparing for competitive examinations including CPMT, DME, DCS, and IAS, should find this book highly applicable due to its authoritative subject matter.
