Growth and Development
(Dahlia,2001)
Development
The process of qualitative changes of
the plant life cycle. The development
concern in maturity of plant such as
hormone activation,
germination, bloomy, and
senescens.
(Dahlia,2001)
Differentation
Differentation can be defined as the process
about the changes from cells into the
tissues and the spesification of the function
of cells or tissues.
Note :
Growth, Development, and
Differentation is the contigous
processes. They couldnt be separated
each other in normal condition.

Seeds come from flower
Seed Development and
Maturation
The development of a seed begins
with the fertilized ovule, or zygote.
The early stage of seed development
is characterized by extensive cell
divisions that form the embryo and, in
endospermic seeds, the tissues that
store nutrients that will support the
eventual germination of the seed and
seedling development.
Maturation, stage of seed development is
characterized by cessation of embryo
growth and the development of
desiccation resistance. Maturation is
terminated by a dramatic desiccation in
which the water content of the seed is
reduced from 80 or 90 percent to
approximately 5 percent.
Seed Germination In
Various Point of View
The process of
increasing the
volume of cells. It
causes by the water
absorption in plant
cell vacuole.
Cells Elongation
Senescence and Programmed Cell
Death
Senescence is like an aging stage in cell
characterized by the declining of
photosynthesis and metabolism, and
degradation of organelles.
Senescence is one form of programmed
cell death (PCD), broadly defined as a
process in which the organism exerts a
measure of genetic control over the death of
cells. PCD requires energy and is normally
regulated by a distinct set of genes.
