Course Description
Plant Developmental Biology encompasses the study of how complex multicellular plants are developed from a single zygotic cell. This course will provide an overview of mechanisms underlying the meristem function during growth and development, cell specification, differentiation and organogenesis in the flowering plants. It also describes the approaches used to study plant development. This course will be highly useful for the students to enhance their knowledge and develop their research interest in the field of developmental biology.
INTENDED AUDIENCE : UG/PG PhD student of Plant science/ Botany/ Biotechnology/ AgriculturePREREQUISITES : Basic knowledge of biology
INDUSTRY SUPPORT : Food based industries
