Photo Morphogenesis And Photo Synthesis In Plant

Photo Morphogenesis And Photo Synthesis In Plant

The definition of photomorphogenesis, is any change in form or function of an organism occurring in response to changes in the light environment. Photomorphogenesis is often defined as light-regulated plant development , but there are also changes in morphology and/or cell structure and function, which occur as transient acclimatizations to a changing environment, which are also light regulated. Particularly if this more inclusive definition is used, photomorphogenesis is a process common to organisms well beyond the plant kingdom. While there may be only a few examples of photomorphogenesis in the animal kingdom, it is a common feature of development in fungi, protists, and bacteria, as well as plants. The book is designed primarily to be used as a resource book for new researchers in plant photobiology.
