Abstract
I studied plants individually or in groups and investigated how they interacted with their immediate environment and recycled energy and matter. I started my enquiry with attempts to understand how ecological phenomena operate in the Nigerian environment. I carried out my enquiries as a natural scientist with the hope that I can contribute to our understanding of the world around us and supply information to applied scientists for use in technological applications.
