Plant Physiology

PLT-3350  Plant Physiology  (3 Credits)  A study of the underlying physiological mechanisms involved in crop responses at different stages of plant development. Dormancy, germination, vegetative development, reproduction and senescence are related to plant hormones and biochemical changes at the cellular level. Physiological responses to abiotic and biotic stresses such as water, temperatuare, salinity, nutrients, diseases and pests are also explained.Instruction (3.0), Lab (2.0)Requisite courses: Take BIO-1167 (Required, Previous). Take PLT-3350L (Required, Concurrent).
