This document discusses crop physiology and stress tolerance research conducted by Dr. Md. Tariqul Islam. It summarizes key plant processes like photosynthesis, transpiration, mineral absorption, and growth. It also describes different types of photosynthesis (C3, C4, CAM) and factors influencing photosynthesis like photorespiration. The document outlines common plant stresses and techniques used to measure growth parameters and analyze crop physiology experiments.
