Conversion of these resources into products (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and other chemicals) by plants. Emphasis on the relationships between environmental resources, plant metabolism and plant growth.-I. (I.) Fischer, Zakharov
-
2.00 Credits
Lecture/discussion-3 hours. Prerequisite: course 100A or the equivalent (may be taken concurrently). Techniques and instruments used to study plant metabolic processes, including water relations, respiration, photosynthesis, enzyme kinetics, microscopy, immunochemistry, and nitrogen fixation. Quantitative methods, problem solving, and practical applications are emphasized.-(I.)
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture-3 hours. Prerequisite: course 100A or consent of instructor. Principles of the cellular mechanisms and hormonal regulation underlying plant growth, development, and reproduction.
