Botany (disambiguation) Botany is the
scientific study of plant
life. As a branch of
biology, it is also called plant science(s), phytology, or plant biology. Botany covers a wide range of scientific disciplines that study
plants,
algae, and
fungi including:
structure,
growth,
reproduction,
metabolism,
development,
diseases, and chemical properties and evolutionary relationships between the different groups. The study of plants and botany began with tribal lore, used to identify edible, medicinal and poisonous plants, making botany one of the oldest sciences. From this ancient interest in plants, the scope of botany has increased to include the study of over 550,000 kinds or species of living organisms.
