Language of instruction: | English |
Type of course: | Non-Departmental Elective |
Course Level: | Bachelor’s Degree (First Cycle) |
Mode of Delivery: | Face to face |
Course Coordinator : | Assist. Prof. MERVE SEVEN |
Recommended Optional Program Components: | There is none. |
Course Objectives: | The aim of the course is to introduce basic concepts in plant biology and plant genetics. Information is given about plant cell types, plant tissues and different plant organs. Thus, knowledge about plant physiology as a whole is gained. The fundamentals of photosynthesis and nutrient cycles, which are important in the metabolism of plants, are comprehensively described. Then, plant genomes, mitochondria and chloroplast genomes structures are introduced and gene transfer, mobile genetic elements and epigenetics are processed in plants. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Identify plant systems and their functioning 2. Discuss plant structure, physiology and development 3. Identify reproduction in plants 4. Identify plant diversity and its importance 5. Gain information about photosynthesis and nitrogen cycle in particular 6. Identify plant genome structures 7. Gain information about ecosystems and role of plant in the ecosystem |
An introductory course on plant sciences and genetics, including topics on plant structure, physiology and development as well as subjects related with plant genetics and biotechnology. |
