- For the scientific journal of the same name see Plant Physiology (journal).
In botany, plant physiology is the study of the function, or physiology, of plants. Fundamental processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, plant nutrition, plant hormone functions, tropisms, nastic movements, photoperiodism, photomorphogenesis, circadian rhythms, environmental stress physiology, seed germination, dormancy and stomata function and transpiration, both part of plant water relations, are studied by plant physiologists.It is closely related to biochemistry and molecular biology.
One of the leading journals in the field is Plant Physiology, started in 1926. All its back issues are available online for free.* Many other journals often carry plant physiology articles, including Physiologia Plantarum, Journal of Experimental Botany, American Journal of Botany, Annals of Botany, Journal of Plant Nutrition and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
