Summary Introduction
To review:
The different aspects of the plant growth that might be affected as a result of the environmental stress.
Introduction:
There are two different types of growth that occur in plant, namely, the primary and the secondary growth. Furthermore, apart from these two types of growth, the growth in the plant can also be recorded in terms of the number and quality of leaves, flowers, and fruits.
