Abstract
Photosynthesis is essential for all plant life on earth, for by this process alone are plants able to convert solar energy into chemical energy, thus providing the raw materials for growth and development. Crop plants produce flowers, fruits, seeds, tubers, petioles, roots, and leaves for our energy and dietary needs and our enjoyment, while weeds produce fruits, seeds, tubers, and rhizomes, making the crop production more difficult! In practical terms, agricultural cultivation is a highly managed ecosystem in which plants have been bred for productivity rather than survival and therefore must be artificially protected from the competing plants (weeds) by herbicide treatment or physical removal of the latter.
