Publisher's Synopsis
"Plant Growth Substances," likely published around 1950, explores the then-emerging field of plant hormones. Authored by Folke Karl Skoog, a pioneering figure in plant physiology at the University of Wisconsin, this work likely delves into the nature, function, and practical applications of substances like auxins and cytokinins. It is expected to explore the influence of these compounds on plant growth, differentiation, and development, reflecting the state of knowledge at the time.
This book offers valuable insights into the historical development of plant hormone research and its potential to revolutionize agriculture and horticulture. Scholars and researchers interested in the history of botany, plant physiology, and agricultural science will find "Plant Growth Substances" a compelling resource.
