Outline |
|
Topics to be covered as follows:
1. Major characteristics of plants: Life cycle, structure and function of plant cells, response to the fluctuating environment.
2. Photosynthesis: Photosynthetic organelles, photoperception, electron transport, photophosphorylation, Calvin-Benson cycle, photorespiration and C4 cycle.
3. Metabolism: Nitrogen fixation, primary metabolism (carbohydrates and fatty acids) and secondary metabolism.
4. Control of growth and development: Photomorphogenesis, phototropism, circadian rhythm and other responses to environmental factors.
5. Transport and translocation of water and solutes: Water potential, water and mineral absorption and translocation, and hormone transport.

Objectives |
|
Plant Physiology is an important bases of plant science including overview of plant structure, life cycles, nutrition, metabolism, development, differentiation, and movements. Their regulation mechanisms are controlled at the molecular level as well as cellular and individual level. The major goal of Plant Physiology is to understand these characteristics of plants in contrast to that of animal and microbes. Topics to be covered in this course are essential to the applied sciences such as agriculture, forestry, pharmacy, and environmentology.
