Plant cells are the eukaryotic cells having true nucleus along with the specialized structures known as organelles. A few of these organelles are chloroplast, cell wall, and ribosomes. Chloroplasts are the special organelles within plant cells that create sugars through the process of photosynthesis. Plant cells have cell walls that give the cell strength and maintain high turgidity. They are composed of cellulose, pectin and hemicelluloses. Some of the common types of plant cell are parenchyma and collenchyma. The living cells that perform various functions such as storage, support to photosynthesis and phloem loading are known as parenchyma. Collenchyma cells have thickened cellulosic cell walls and are alive at maturity. This book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of plant cell biology. It is an upcoming field of science that has undergone rapid development over the past few decades. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
