Synthetic Biology and Plants 

The book Synthetic Biology and Plants describes how you can kill dandelions, plantain, and many other turf weeds without injuring your lawn and garden. A homeowner, amateur gardener, farmer, professional horticulturist or agricultural adviser can find this book very useful as well as the readers of this subject.By studying this book you can able to know how you can make cuttings from your favourite plants root quickly and prevent the premature dropping of fruit before harvest time. A list of available chemicals, with their trade-names and manufacturers included in the book makes particularly useful book. Extensive tables give trees, shrubs, and plants by both common and scientific names, listing rooting treatment, time, and result from the use of growth regulators.Used chemicals described have proved nontoxic to animals and humans and thus are safe for use in pastures. In the last three decades, these remarkable growth-regulating chemicals, or plant hormones, have been used to make tomato plants set more fruit, to hasten the ripening of fruits, and to potatoes, rosebushes, and other kinds of nursery stock. The readers able to understand how plant growth regulators can be used is based on experiments conducted by agricultural departments, state experimental stations, and many other research agencies.
