Plant structure and development show how adaptation aids survival and productivity. During this session, the tissue organization of xylem, phloem, epidermis, and mesophyll, as well as their functions in the transport, defense, and photosynthesis processes, will be explored. The developmental biology of roots, stems, and leaves will be explained by experts with the focus on diversity among species and environments. The class will involve information on specialized plant structures like trichomes, stomata, and vascular bundles that help in water control, defense, and metabolic optimization. Microscopic examination will display the cellular foundation of tissue differentiation and organ formation. Emphasis will be put on evolutionary changes in morphology enabling plants to live in deserts, wetlands, or high-altitude conditions. We will also discuss applied plant anatomy, such as wood science, crop breeding, and the production of bioenergy. Case studies will link morphology to functional ecology and show how structure and function co-evolve. Participants will understand the elaborate designs of plant structures and their significance in resilience, productivity, and ecological success by the end of the session.
Welcome to Plant Biology Conference 2026, where global researchers, academicians, and ecologists unite to share advancements in plant genetics, physiology, biotechnology, ecology, and sustainable agriculture and conservation practices.
