The Owen and Fischer libraries contain many resources for students and faculty
interested in Plant Physiology. If you have any questions not answered on
the WSU Libraries website or would like to request a book or journal on any
subjects related to Molecular Plant Sciences, please contact Joel
Cummings. For questions about WSU's program, please contact the Graduate

Indexes, Abstracts and other databases.
- The PLANTS Database: is a single
source of standardized information about plants. This database focuses on
vascular plants, mosses, liverworts, hornworts, and lichens of the U.S.
and its territories. The PLANTS Database includes names, checklists, automated
tools, identification information, species abstracts, distributional data,
crop information, plant symbols, plant growth data, plant materials information,
plant links, references, and other plant information.
Some major sources of electronic journals for Plant Physiology are:
Scholarly Society Publishers
- BioOne:
A collection of high impact journals produced by scholarly societies. 2000
to the present.
Reference Books: The Owen Library's reference section is one the 1st
floor towards the south end of the building. The
reference section of the Fischer library on the right as one enters the library.
