Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Answers to practical questions about plant growth are sought with
increasing urgency. Climate change is affecting the stability of
vegetation, the yield of many important crops, and there is a
continual need for ever more productive varieties to feed a growing
global population. Answering questions posed by these problems
requires a more integrated understanding of how plants function in
producing growth. This book shows how this understanding can be
achieved. First and foremost, plant growth must be defined as a
dynamic system with developmental, morphological, and physiological
processes responding to fluctuations in the environment due to
weather, changes in the architecture of the plant as it grows, and
the effects of plants on their environment: connecting these
processes in a complete system is the essential integration. Part I
shows, for contrasting plant types, that developmental,
morphological, and physiological processes must all be considered
to explain differences in growth and survival; Part II defines the
types of control processes occurring in plants and their different
functions; Part III illustrates the importance of plant morphology
in controlling growth; Part IV how, and to what extent, the effects
of environmental factors are controlled by plant processes
particularly as plants grow in size. A final chapter defines how a
theory for growth of a particular plant must be based on its
characteristics as a dynamic system.
