Course description
Plant hormones play important roles in plant life cycle, including fertilization, embryogenesis, germination and dormancy, root and shoot developments, flowering, fertilization and tropism. This course introduces recent progresses in plant hormone biology from the view points of biosynthesis, inactivation, transport, perception, and gene expression.
Expected Learning
Understanding the molecular mechanism of plant hormone actions in plant growth and development.
Course schedule
1) embryogenesis - auxin
2) seed germination and dormancy - gibberellin and ABA
3) seedling development - ethylene, BR, auxin
4) root development - auxin
5) shoot development - CLV, auxin, cytokinin, strigolactone
6) flowering - florigen
7) fertilization - LURE
8) tropism -auxin
