Course content
|
Role of light and plant hormones in plant growth and development: Characteristics and localization of phytochromes, cryptochromes and phototropins; plant responses mediated by red and blue light photoreceptors; cellular and molecular mechanisms of functions for red light and blue light photoreceptors. Plant hormone signaling: Signal transduction pathways for auxin, cytokinins, brassinosteroids, abscisic acid, gibberellins, ethylene, jasmonic and salicylic acid; structure of receptors and downstream elements of signaling pathways; final growth and developmental responses induced by plant hormones. Interaction of light and hormone signaling pathways: Light effects on hormone levels, amount and activity of hormone receptors; common elements of light and hormone signaling pathways.
