Plant Physiology is one of the fundamental sciences in the agricultural field, as it contributes to understanding the physiological processes that occur within plants throughout their growth and development. It focuses on studying the mechanisms by which plants absorb water and nutrients from the soil and transport them to different plant parts. It also examines essential biological processes, such as photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration, and their roles in plant growth, survival, and productivity. The importance of plant physiology lies in explaining the relationship between plant biological functions and the surrounding environmental conditions, including light, temperature, humidity, and water availability. These factors directly affect the growth of agricultural crops and the quality of their production. Studying these processes also helps determine the actual requirements of plants and understand their responses to various environmental changes, particularly unfavorable conditions such as drought, salinity, and high temperatures. Plant physiology plays a significant role in agricultural development by improving crop management practices, increasing the efficiency of water and fertilizer use, enhancing agricultural productivity, and improving crop quality. Furthermore, knowledge of physiological processes supports the adoption of modern agricultural practices that address environmental challenges, promote sustainability, and conserve natural resources. In this context, organizing scientific lectures on plant physiology is important for enhancing students’ scientific knowledge and developing their understanding of the biological principles underlying plant production. Such lectures also help connect theoretical concepts with practical applications in agriculture, contributing to the development of students’ skills and the preparation of qualified agricultural professionals capable of applying scientific knowledge to improve plant production and keep pace with modern advances in sustainable agriculture.
