What is plant ecophysiology?

Study of physiological responses to the environment Interface between ecology and physiology: Ecology provides the questions Physiology provides the ‘tools’

Why does a particular species live where it does? How does it manage to grow and reproduce successfully and why is it absent from other environments?

What is the environment? Physical Environment (light intensity, temperature, gravity, etc.) Chemical Environment (H2O, CO2, O2, N2, minerals, toxins, etc.) Plants Biotic Environment (soil organisms, competition for space and other resources, herbivory, allelopathy, etc.)

How will changes in the environment affect the survival of species?

Applications of plant ecophysiology Understanding the limits on agricultural production
