THE FIELDS OF BOTANY
Because the field is so broad, there are
many kinds of plant biologists.
Ecological Botanists: Study interactions of
plants with other organisms and the environment. Field botanists search to
find new species or do experiments to discover how plants grow under
different conditions. Some botanists study the structure of plants. They
may work in the field, concentrating on the pattern of the whole plant.
Others use microscopes to study the most detailed fine structure of
individual cells.
