PHYSIOLOGICAL PLANT ECOLOGY

BOTANY/F&WECOL/ZOOLOGY 460

Ecology of individual organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems, landscapes, and the biosphere. The interaction of organisms with each other and their physical environment. These relationships are studied, often in quantitative terms, in both field and laboratory settings.

PLANTSCI 720

Examines the role of physiological processes in agricultural plant production, including the effects of primary productivity, water relations, mineral nutrition, and temperature responses. Plasticity and adaptation (through breeding) to different agricultural environments are studied.

BOTANY 500

An in-depth look at plant growth, development, respiration, photosynthesis, mineral nutrition, and water relations. Experimental approaches will be used to demonstrate principles described.

ATMOCN/PLANTSCI 532

Plant-environment interactions with particular reference to energy exchanges and water relations. Models are used to provide a quantitative synthesis of information from plant physiology, soil physics, and micrometeorology with some consideration of plant-pest interactions.

BOTANY 858

Topics of interest in the area of Plant Physiology.
