 Plant Physiology
Photosynthesis is the physico-chemical process by which plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria use light energy to drive the synthesis of organic compounds.
In plants, algae and certain types of bacteria, the photosynthetic process results in the release of molecular oxygen and the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere that is used to synthesize carbohydrates (oxygenic photosynthesis).
Because all the energy fixed by the plant is converted into sugar, it is theoretically possible to determine plant's energy uptake by measuring the amount of sugar produced.

The biomass of WT was 38% higher than that of d61-7 at harvest under conventional planting density because of the dwarfism of d61-7.
This was accompanied by a decrease in the levels of hexose phosphates, while metabolites in the second half of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and various amino acids increased, indicating a stimulation of anaplerotic fluxes reliant on alpha-ketoglutarate.
Plants altered in the expression of the WRI1 gene showed different germination responses to the growth factor abscisic acid (ABA), sugars, and fatty acids provided in the medium.

 Plant Physiology
In some plants, an environmental signal is not necessary to trigger the transition to the determined state.
Some plants (henbane) need to reach a certain size to be responsive to cold treatment, whereas others (rye) can be treated as seeds.
Plants can be de-vernalized if the cold treatment is followed by a heat.

 Journals: Plant Physiology
- Journal of Plant Physiology is a journal that combines a long-standing tradition with the aspects of a periodical emphasizing on progress in all fields of plant physiology.
It publishes papers concerned with the whole spectrum of scientific research from phytochemistry to plant cell biology, molecular biology, whole plant physiology, developmental biology, and stress and ecophysiology, always provided they contain new results of basic research.
The scope of the journal ranges from molecular and cell biology, via biochemistry and biophysics, to classical plant physiology and ecophysiology, thereby maintaining contact among the different organisational levels of plant biology.
