Angiosperms are seed-producing plants like the gymnosperms and can be distinguished from the gymnosperms by a series of synapomorphies. These characteristics include flowers, endosperm within the seeds, and the production of fruits that contain the seeds. Flowering plants (angiosperms) comprise about 90 percent of the Kingdom Plantae. This book covers flowering plants, morphology and anatomy of flowering plants, diversity of flowering plants, plants propagation, germination of seeds, plant reproductive systems, plant water relationship and root system. The book also considers the development of individual plant organs such as the shoot, leaf, root, and flowers as well as alternate developmental strategies of plants.

This book will be of immense use to the botanists, plant scientists, students, teachers, researchers, foresters and all other people working in other allied disciplines.
