Exploring plant ecology, this content delves into the relationships between plants and their environments, including their roles in ecosystems as engineers and indicators of environmental change. It covers plant genetics and biodiversity, the use of model organisms in molecular genetics, and the impact of epigenetic mechanisms on plant development and heredity. The intricate dynamics of plant communities, their adaptive strategies, and responses to environmental stresses are also examined.
