This section explores the advanced physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms that regulate plant growth and development. It is designed for advanced Class 11–12 students, NEET aspirants aiming for high scores, and undergraduate learners who want deeper conceptual clarity beyond basic descriptions.
In this section, you will study:
Molecular basis of plant growth and development
Detailed mechanisms of action of plant growth regulators
Signal transduction pathways in plant development
Genetic and environmental control of growth patterns
Advanced concepts of photoperiodism and vernalization
Integration of hormonal and environmental signals
Growth analysis using kinetic and quantitative models
NCERT-based advanced interpretations and exam-oriented questions
The content is structured to strengthen conceptual depth, enhance analytical thinking, and prepare students to handle higher-difficulty and reasoning-based questions in NEET and undergraduate-level assessments.
Develop a deeper understanding of plant growth and development by connecting molecular mechanisms with physiological outcomes.
