Plants have been an object of study since the roots of the Greek, Chinese and Indian cultures. Since the term ?cell? was first coined by Robert Hooke, 350 years ago in Micrographia, the study of plant cell biology has moved ahead at a tremendous pace. The field of cell biology owes its genesis to physics, which through microscopy has been a vital source for piquing scientists? interest in the biology of the cell. Today, with the technical advances we have made in the field of optics, it is even possible to observe life on a nanoscale.  From Hooke?s observations of cells and his inadvertent discovery of the cell wall, we have since moved forward to engineering plants with modified cell walls. Studies on the chloroplast have also gone from Julius von Sachs? experiments with chloroplast, to using chloroplast engineering to deliver higher crop yields. Similarly, advances in fluorescent microscopy have made it far easier to observe organelles like chloroplast (once studied by Sachs) or actin (observed by Bohumil Nemec). If physics in the form of cell biology has been responsible for one half of this historical development, biochemistry has surely been the other. 410 0$aPlant Cell Monographs,$x1861-1370 ;$v23 606 $aCell biology 606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlant development 606 $aMicroscopy 606 $aBiology?History 606 $aCell Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 606 $aBiological Microscopy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L26000 606 $aHistory of Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L31000 615 0$aCell biology. 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlant development. 615 0$aMicroscopy. 615 0$aBiology?History. 615 14$aCell Biology. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 615 24$aBiological Microscopy. 615 24$aHistory of Biology. 676 $a581.3 702 $aSahi$b Vaidurya Pratap$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBalu?ka$b Franti?ek$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298423403321 996 $aConcepts in Cell Biology - History and Evolution$92503182 997 $aUNINA
