Plant Biology & Agricultural Sciences

Plant science, often known as botany, is the study of organisms belonging to the kingdom Plantae, or plants. Botany is derived from the term botanical, which is derived from the ancient Greek term botane, which meant "plants, grasses, and pastures."

 

 

Plants have long been a source of widespread and sometimes dominant artistic and intellectual fascination. Plants have been the main subjects of science since the beginning of the study of biological processes and were very crucial in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Plant research broadens our intellectual horizons and expands our understanding of other biological processes. The study of the plant system can also tell us how to solve problems in agriculture, health and the environment.
