Plant Response As A Means Of Physiological Investigation (1905)

Plant Response As A Means Of Physiological Investigation is a scientific book written by Jagadis Chunder Bose and published in 1905. The book explores the various ways in which plants respond to different stimuli, such as light, heat, and electricity, and how these responses can be used to investigate the physiological processes of plants.Bose, a renowned physicist and biologist, was one of the first scientists to use electrical and mechanical instruments to study plant responses. In this book, he presents his findings on the effects of different stimuli on plant growth, movement, and sensitivity.The book is divided into several chapters, each one focusing on a specific aspect of plant response. The first chapter provides an overview of the methods used to study plant response, including the use of electrical and mechanical instruments. The following chapters explore the effects of different stimuli on plant growth, including light, heat, and electricity.Bose also discusses the role of plant response in the study of plant physiology, including the mechanisms of plant growth and the relationship between plant response and environmental factors. He also examines the potential applications of plant response research in agriculture and horticulture.Overall, Plant Response As A Means Of Physiological Investigation is a groundbreaking work that helped to establish the field of plant physiology. It remains an important reference for scientists and researchers interested in the study of plant growth and response to stimuli.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
