Course description
The purpose of plant ecophysiology is the one area of plant physiology, and is to understand the growth, dry matter production and the relationship between plant and environment. In the class, effects of light, temperature and moisture conditions on plant growth and development, photosynthesis and translocation and distribution of photoassimilates are introduced from the view of plant ecophysiology.
Expected Learning
The standard of this lecture is to understand plant ecophysilogy associated with canopy growth, dry matter production and plant-environment interactions.
