	Botany (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Not all plants are beneficial to weeds are a considerable problem in agriculture and botany provides some of the science in order to understand how to their impact.
		Plants are convenient organisms in which fundamental (like cell division and protein synthesis for example) can be studied without ethical dilemmas of studying animals or humans.
		Plants also provide us with many natural cotton wood paper linen vegetable oils some types of rope and rubber are just a few examples that often take for granted.

	PCA: National Framework
		These native plants are found in a wide range of environments from boreal forests, alpine tundra, and prairie grasslands to interior deserts, coastal salt marshes, and tropical rainforests.
		Conservation of native plants in many of these habitats is threatened by a complex array of factors associated with human population growth and development.
		The Center for Plant Conservation estimates that 200 plant species have gone extinct in the United States since the early 1800's, and nearly 5,000 native plants are "at risk." Current human population growth and associated development have greatly accelerated degradation of native plants and natural ecosystems.

	ERS/USDA Data - Plant Breeding Research and Development
		A new study of plant breeding research is currently underway and being conducted by researchers at Auburn University.
		Public Sector Plant Breeding in a Privatizing World—Intellectual property protection, globalization, and pressure on public budgets in many industrialized countries have shifted the balance of plant breeding activity from the public to the private sector.
		Public sector involvement in plant breeding may have benefits to society that the private sector's activities may not, fostering greater sharing of information and more work on traits of plant varieties that may be under-researched by private breeding programs.

	Science - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The social sciences, inheriting portions of the realm of moral philosophy, are currently also included under the auspices of science to the extent that these disciplines use empirical methods.
		Science is not a source of subjective value judgements, though it can certainly speak to matters of ethics and public policy by pointing to the likely consequences of actions.
		Science has become so pervasive in modern societies that it is generally considered necessary to communicate the achievements, news, and dreams of scientists to a wider populace.

	Peter Suber, Open-Access Lists (formerly: FOS Lists)
		In some (the sciences), journal literature is the primary literature, while in others (the humanities) journal literature only reports on the history and interpretation of the primary literature, which lies in books.
		Some fields are small enough (in practitioners and journals) that nearly every researcher has university-subsidized access to nearly every journal in the field (astrophysics is an example), while in larger fields (like biology) even researchers at wealthy universities don't have access to a significant range of the literature in their field.
