Istorijat / History
DFBS je sledbenik Jugoslovenskog drustva za fiziologje biljaka (JDFB) osnovanog 1966. Nakon više izmena i reorganizacija sadašnji naziv se koristi od 2007.g. Drustvo je do sada organizovalo 18 redovnih simpozijuma i niz drugih skupova. Društvo je imalo i zapaženu izdavačku delatnost.

Cilj društva / Aims of the Society
DFBS je naučno društvo organizovano radi  unapredjenja znanja o fiziologiji biljaka
Osnovni ciljevi društva su
- unapredjenje osnovnih i primenjenih istraživanja usmerenih ka objašnjavanju kako biljke funkcionišu
- unapredjenje srednjoškolske i fakultetske nastave fiziologije biljaka i srodnih disciplina
- bolje upoznavanje društva u celini sa mogućnostima primene znanja iz oblasti fiziologije biljaka
- uspostavljanje kontakata i razmena informacija, podataka i ideja između članova društva

DFBS is a scientific society established with the intention  to improve the  knowledge on plant physiology. The main goals of the society are:
- to improve fundamental and applied research aimed to explain how  plants function
- to improve educational programs of plant physiology in schools and faculties
- to promote understanding how society can benefit from scientific research in plant physiology     
- to establisah and facilitate constact between members enabling exchange of data, results and ideas for scientific research
