Éléments de botanique

A good effort of popularization accompanied by a rich person glossary.

Here an interesting Introductory course to botany realized by Mr. Joel REYNAUD, Lecturer at the Laboratory of botany, the University of Lyon 1.

The course counts several illustrations. Its navigation is simple and easy thanks to two long pages and of contents out of framework.

A good effort of popularization accompanied by a rich person glossary, though several words as "plasmodesmes" (which are not in my dictionary) and others of the same kind, would still need to be added there.

Lastly, the access is free.
