Basic Plant Anatomy: Roots, Stems, and Leaves

The primary organs of vascular plants are roots, stems, and leaves, but these structures can be highly variable, adapted for the specific needs and environment of different plant species.
Introduction to Seed Plants03:40

Introduction to Seed Plants

Most plants are seed plants—characterized by seeds, pollen, and reduced gametophytes. Seed plants include gymnosperms and angiosperms.
Non-vascular Seedless Plants02:26

Non-vascular Seedless Plants

The diverse plant life on Earth—consisting of nearly 400,000 species—can be divided into three broad categories based on biological characteristics: nonvascular, seedless vascular, and seed plants.
Origin of Photosynthesis01:26

Origin of Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis represents a fundamental biological process that transformed Earth's atmosphere and paved the way for complex life. Emerging roughly 3.4–3.8 billion years ago, the earliest photosynthetic organisms harnessed light energy to produce organic compounds. These anoxygenic phototrophs used electron donors like hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) or ferrous iron (Fe²⁺), rather than water, and did not release molecular oxygen (O₂) as a byproduct. Various groups, including green sulfur and purple...
The Anatomy of Chloroplasts01:08

The Anatomy of Chloroplasts

Green algae and plants, including green stems and unripe fruit, harbor specialized organelles called chloroplasts to carry out photosynthesis. They coordinate both stages of photosynthesis — the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions. The light-dependent reactions use sunlight to release oxygen and produce chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH, and the light-independent reactions capture CO2 and use ATP and NADPH to produce sugar.

Summary

AoB PLANTS is a peer-reviewed, Open Access journal for plant biology research. It offers rapid online publication, free access, and fair review, supporting global plant science and addressing challenges like climate change.

Area of Science:

  • Plant biology research
  • Land-based plant science

Background:

  • AoB PLANTS is a peer-reviewed, Open Access (OA) journal published by Oxford University Press.
  • It addresses challenges in conventional publishing, such as library budget constraints and the need to limit printed journal size.
  • The journal aims to provide a wide international readership for high-quality plant science research, particularly in response to global issues like climate change and food security.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a peer-reviewed, Open Access journal for all aspects of land-based plant biology.
  • To provide rapid online publication of research papers, reviews, and opinion papers.
  • To ensure research is freely accessible to the academic community and beyond.

Main Methods:

  • Adoption of Open Access publishing model.
