Crop Plant Anatomy

"The book is divided into four major sections covering the history, techniques, and general aspects of plant anatomy; the anatomy of major crops; anatomy as related to crop adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses; and anatomy as related to productivity. The section on major crops, the bulk of the book, includes the chapters "Cereals," "Pulses," "Oil Crops," "Fibre Crops," and "Vegetables." The work is well written and illustrated; each chapter contains a reference list, and the index is well organized. Summing Up: Recommended."
