Plant Morphology is a branch of Plant Science which involves the study of life history of plants. It includes the origin and development of plants, their external and internal structures and the relation of the members of the plant body with one another. The ancient Indian scientists studied plant life particularly from Morphological aspect. This branch of Botany is divided into external morphology and internal morphology or histology. Both these were known to ancient Indians. Vṛkṣāyurveda of Parāśara has given detailed information on plant morphology. This branch of Botany is divided into “external morphology” and “internal morphology” or “histology”. Both these were known to ancient Indians. The Atharvaveda is the earliest work to reveal the knowledge of external morphology. In this Veda trees of various descriptions are mentioned. [...] The Vājasaneyī Saṃhitā and Taittirīya Saṃhitā state the different parts making up a plant.
