Botany From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Botany is the scientific study of plant life . As a branch of biology , it is also sometimes referred to as plant science(s) or plant biology . Botany covers a wide range of scientific disciplines that study the growth reproduction metabolism development ... diseases , and evolution of plant life. Nearly all the food we eat comes (directly and indirectly) from plants like this American long grain rice. This one of the many reasons that botany is an important topic of study and research. Table of contents 1 Scope and motivation of botany 1.1 Feed the world 1.2 Understand fundamental processes 1.3 Utilise medicine and materials ... edit Scope and motivation of botany As with other life forms in biology, plant life can be studied at a variety of levels, from the molecular genetic and biochemical level through to organelles cells tissues organs and the biodiversity of whole plants. At the top end of this scale, plants can be studied in populations, communities and ecosystems (as in ecology ). At each of these levels a botanist might be concerned with the classification ( taxonomy ), structure (

Expand Search [1918-19] Annual Report of the President of the University on Behalf of the Regents to His Excellency the Governor of the State of California Summary of Reports: Submitted to the President by Departments Botany Botany Donations to the Herbarium have been less in the past year than in former years, totaling 1393 specimens, which include both material for incorporation into the general collection and for use as exchange material. The need of securing provision for a large amount of material to be used in exchange is urgent. The interest in plant introductions is general in California, and the people of the state are making use of the collection composing the Herbarium and of the services of the staff in increasing degree. To meet the prospective needs it is very desirable that the representation in the Herbarium of floras of the Pacific countries other than western North America be largely augmented by securing exchanges from herbaria abroad. In addition to the exchange material received in the past year from various people of the state, including the members of the department, the Herbarium has acquired accessions from similar institutions in return for material sent from the University Herbarium. Another way in which the collection is demonstrating its value is by the loan of material for purposes of research to institutions both within the state and beyond its borders. During the past year material has been sent to a number of institutions for this purpose, among them being the University of Illinois, the National Herbarium at Washington, Leland Stanford Junior University, and the Museum of History, Science, and Art in Los Angeles. To protect properly the collection from insect attack and the risk of loss by fire, some years ago the policy was adopted of purchasing a number of steel cases annually. At present less than half of the total number of sheets (220,000) are so protected and there are on hand ready for mounting, and for which at present no storage facilities are provided, enough specimens to raise the total collection to a quarter of a million sheets.
