Structural biology is the study of how biological molecules and tissues are organized and arranged across all levels of biological organization. In plant science, understanding plant structure—from molecular proteins to cellular architecture to whole-organism morphology—is essential for explaining how plants grow, function, and respond to environmental stresses. This knowledge enables researchers to develop improved crop varieties, understand disease mechanisms, and optimize plant traits for agricultural and biotechnological applications.
