It describes etiolation, where stems elongate in darkness to seek light, and outlines the growth cycle of angiosperms, with annuals completing it in one year and biennials over two. Additionally, it highlights photoperiodism, which triggers synchronized flowering in angiosperms in response to changing daylight, facilitating cross-pollination.

Many temperate seeds require cold to overcome germination inhibitors. In dicots, the primary root and hypocotyl emerge with cotyledons shielding the plumule, while monocots like corn and oats grow their primary root downwards and primary leaf upwards, protected by a coleoptile. The mechanisms of germination are crucial for plant survival and growth.

They promote beneficial mycorrhizal relationships but aren't classified as plant hormones unless mobility within the plant is confirmed. Recent research indicates that strigolactones also inhibit lateral bud development, thereby regulating branching more specifically than auxin and abscisic acid, which have broader effects.
