Biophysics of the Plant Kingdom
Biophysics is a science in which biology and physics converge, thus explaining biological processes complicated with physical phenomenon. In 1920, it questioned because biological systems do not follow the second law of thermodynamics but in a world where entropy never decreases, two cells could form an organism fully organized. Furthermore, Schrödinger wrote his book...

Any adverse effects including negative leaf water balance, turgor loss, chlorophyll degradation, and down-regulation of photosynthesis through affecting stomatal functioning and restricting the supply of carbon dioxide (Zhou et al. 2017). Cell enlargement, leaf expansion, root and shoot development, dry matter partitioning, and consequently yield are also negatively...

Alternatives for Fighting Citrus Greening Disease
Plants respond to sounds of different frequencies Florida State is the third-largest orange producer globally, behind Brazil and China, and the first orange-producing in the United States. The 2020 – 2021 forecast released by the USDA Agricultural Statistics Board this month calculates over 55.5 million boxes, down from the February forecast by 500 thousand boxes;
Effects of frequencies on plants
Plants respond to sounds of different frequencies Sound is acoustic energy in an oscillatory pressure wave transmitted through gases, liquids, and solids. Like other physical environmental factors such as moisture, light, wind, and temperature, it can have a physiological effect on plant growth and other metabolic processes, or at a molecular level-triggered within a plant
