Learning outcomes
|
The breeding methods and aims of the most important groups of cultivated plant will be explained. Selected topics will be presented by specialists - breeders.
Upon completion of the course, students should be able to explain the principles of specific breeding methods and procedures applied to the most important groups of cultivated plants, characterize the main breeding objectives, and provide examples of the practical use of newly developed cultivars. Students of biology and phytopathology should be able to apply this knowledge in professional and research practice, while students enrolled in teacher-training programmes should also be able to use it appropriately when teaching biology at lower- and upper-secondary schools.
