Plant Physiology

Description

The course "Plant Physiology and Plant Responses" provides an in-depth understanding of the fundamental processes governing plant physiology, with a focus on responses to environmental and endogenous stimuli. The curriculum examines key physiological processes essential for maintaining plant homeostasis, such as photosynthesis, cellular respiration, water relations, and plant responses to abiotic stresses. Students will gain knowledge of the functions of cellular organelles, the critical role of water and nutrients in plant physiology, and the various ways plants respond to light. Additionally, students will gain knowledge on phytohormones and their impact on plant growth and physiology.

The course fosters collaboration among students, encouraging them to analyze and jointly present research studies that highlight the importance of understanding plant physiological processes and their connection to modern challenges in agricultural production. By exploring the literature, students will develop essential skills in data analysis and research presentation. The aim of the course is to inspire students to explore tools and knowledge that influence the productivity and sustainability of plant organisms, equipping them to contribute to innovative solutions in agiculture.
