Course description
In this course, issues related to horticultural crops including postharvest physiology of flowers and strawberry fruits, early germination and flowering in peach, and mechanism of flower malformation in carnation, are introduced and discussed from the viewpoint of genetic resources and breeding.
Expected Learning
(1) To understand the relationship between physiological ecological issues of horticultural crops and their genetics/breeding.
(2) To express opinions on the issues and goals concerning plant resources and breeding from their own perspective.
Course schedule
(1) Physiology of flower senescence depending on ethylene sensitivity
(2) Postharvest physiology and handling of strawberry fruits for exporting to abroad
(3) Early germination and flowering in peach for developing ‘seed peach’ system
(4) Mechanism of malformed flowers in carnation
