植物生理学与其母体社会是分不开的。美国植物生理学家学会（American Society of Plant physiology，简称ASPP）在15年前才为人所知，它是在20世纪初在美国植物学会的一个分支中建立起来的。一小群植物生理学家——当时的肯塔基大学的查尔斯·舒尔和美国植物学会生理分会秘书罗伯特·哈维、美国科学促进会常任秘书伯顿·利文斯顿以及威斯康星大学的杰比·奥弗顿——不顾某些方面的反对，领导了这次行动。从1924年开始，ASPP的重点就是社区。舒尔后来指出，该学会是属于植物生理学家的，而不是为植物生理学家服务的：学会本身就是一个团体。这种区别在学会和杂志的早期发展中发挥了重要作用，就像现在一样。《植物生理学》作为ASPP的官方出版物成立。它的第一期于1926年1月出版，Shull担任主编。植物生理学的诞生与标志着它的过去和未来的世界事件相吻合。1926年，鲁道夫·瓦伦蒂诺去世；亚伯拉罕·林肯总统的儿子罗伯特·托德·林肯；还有内科医生、诺贝尔奖得主卡米洛·高尔基，亚细胞细胞器就是以他的名字命名的。那一年也是美国引入第一个编号公路系统的一年，包括现在著名的66号公路。它见证了博物学家和主持人大卫·阿滕伯勒（David Attenborough）和生物化学家保罗·伯格（Paul Berg）的诞生，后者与沃尔特·吉尔伯特（Walter Gilbert）和弗雷德里克·桑格（Frederick Sanger）一起，因在理解核酸方面的贡献，于1980年获得了诺贝尔化学奖。巧合的是，1926年弗里茨·沃特报告了他发现了植物激素生长素。植物生长可能受激素调节的观点，起初在植物生理学界遭到了抵制——关于矿物质对生长的影响，有更有力的证据——但它的重要性很快就被认识到了。在第二次世界大战之后的几年里，专门研究生长素、激素和植物发育的文章占植物生理学内容的20%左右。生长素、矿物质营养、植物生长、发育和形态发生仍然是今天发表在该杂志上的许多研究的焦点，尽管研究这些主题的工具已经变得面目全非。尽管这是ASPP的官方出版物，但《植物生理学》远不止是该学会的一份通讯。从一开始，它的目标就是“帮助所有必须使用生理攻击的植物科学的进步”。要么作为
Plant Physiology is inseparable from its parent society. The American Society of Plant Physiologists (ASPP), as it was known until a decade and a half ago, had its foundations in a splinter group of the Botanical Society of America during the early years of the 20th century. A small group of plant physiologists-Charles Shull, then of the University of Kentucky, along with Robert Harvey, the secretary of the Physiological Section of the Botanical Society of America, Burton Livingston, the permanent secretary to the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and JB Overton of the University of Wisconsin-led the move, despite opposition from some quarters. From its start in 1924, the emphasis of ASPP was on community. Shull noted later that the Society was of, not for, plant physiologists: the Society was the community. This distinction played an important part in the early growth of the Society and of the journal, as it does now. Plant Physiology was founded as the official publication of ASPP. Its first issue appeared in January 1926 with Shull as Editor-in-Chief. The birth of Plant Physiology coincided with world events that mark both its roots in the past and its future. The year 1926 saw the passing of Rudolph Valentino; Robert Todd Lincoln, son of President Abraham Lincoln; and the physician and Nobel Laureate Camillo Golgi, after whom the subcellular organelle is named. That year was also marked by the introduction in the United States of the first numbered highway system, including the now famous Route 66. It saw the birth of both the naturalist and presenter David Attenborough and the biochemist Paul Berg who, with Walter Gilbert and Frederick Sanger, received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1980 for contributions to understanding nucleic acids. Serendipitously, 1926 was the year that Fritz Went reported his discovery of the plant hormone auxin. The idea that plant growth might be regulated by hormones met resistance within the plant physiological community at first-there was much stronger evidence for the effects of minerals on growth-but its importance was soon recognized. In the years following WWII, articles devoted to auxin, hormones, and plant development came to make up some 20% of the content of Plant Physiology. Auxin, mineral nutrition, plant growth, development, and morphogenesis remain the foci of much research published in the journal today, although the tools available to study these topics have changed beyond recognition.Even though it was the official publication of ASPP, Plant Physiology was much more than a newsletter for the Society. From the start, its aims were" to aid in the advancement of all of the plant sciences where a physiological attack must be employed. either as a
