Important Botanical Gardens

What are Botanical Gardens? Botanical gardens are institutions that care for living plant collections of many species of plants. We can find plant species from all over the world in a large botanical garden. These varieties include decorative and cultivated plants, wild, medicinal, economically important plants, plants from diverse geographical regions, plants of special interest, […]

Radicle and Plumule

Plants are the building body of the planet. Without plants on the Earth, there would doubtfully be the presence of any life on Earth. Here, we will study radicle and plumule, which are the two most crucial parts of a seed. A seed, in general, is the most important part of a flowering plant. The

Racemose Inflorescence

As a result, it is referred to as an indefinite or indeterminate inflorescence in some circles.It is referred to as a compound raceme or panicle when the main axis of the inflorescence has been branched and the flowers on the lateral branches are arranged in a simple raceme fashion on the branches. For example, Mangifera

Pteridophytes: Characteristics, Classification and Life Cycle

Gymnosperms, Pteridophytes and Angiosperms all belong to the Tracheophytes family of green plants. It has a vascular network made up of xylem, phloem, and xylem with a well-developed branching, autonomous, and dominating sporophyte. This monophyletic group was established around 420 million years ago. Pteridophytes are seedless vascular plants with spores that develop freely into gametophytes,

Pteridophyta Life Cycle

The abundance of green ferns is the first thing that strikes our attention. Pteridophytes include ferns like this. Pteridophyta, often known as vascular cryptogams, has around 12000 species on the planet. The only non-flowering seedless plants with circulatory tissues are pteridophytes. Psilophyta, Lycophyta, Arthrophyta, and Filicophyta are the four primary classes of Pteridophyta. Pteridophyta is

Pteridophyta

Pteridophyte, also known as vascular cryptogam, is any spore-bearing vascular plant, such as ferns, club mosses, spike mosses, quillworts, horsetails, and whisk ferns. Previously supposed to be of the same evolutionary path, these plants were historically classified as ferns and fern allies and put in the same category Pteridophyta. Despite the fact that contemporary research

Levels of Biodiversity and Conservation

Biodiversity included three levels-” genetic diversity” which is also known as alpha diversity,” species diversity” or beta diversity, and “ecological diversity”.These 3 levels function at the same time to build multiplicity of survival on the planet.  Genetic diversity: Genetic diversity in a species means variation at the gene or genetic level. To understand this, we

Proteinoplasts

Plant cells bear unique structures in cell biology due to the presence of a cell wall, a large central vacuole, and plastids. There are many specialised organelles present in plant cells that play an important role in the survival of the plant cells. Among these cell organelles, plastids are the specialised organelles that are structurally

Longitudinal Section of Flower

Introduction Is it true that plants create flowers solely to delight us? Because of its lovely beauty and aroma, the blossom is the most appealing part of the plant. And it’s not just the flowers’ elegance that makes them unique. Flowers are a plant’s reproductive organs. These are food for a variety of insects and

Propagation: Meaning, Types

What is Vegetative Propagation? Vegetative propagation refers to asexual methods of plant reproduction. This involves plants’ leaves, roots, stems and seeds. This can happen through the fragmentation or regeneration of particular vegetative parts. Let’s look at some examples of vegetative propagation. Types of Vegetative Production You can choose from: Natural Vegetative Propagation This happens when plants
