Course Objectives: | The aim of the course is to understand plant developmental biology and internal and external factors affecting differentiation. Course contents include the topics of; Definition of developmental biology, gametogenesis and fertilization, stages of development, division, morphogenesis, differentiation mechanisms, the role of genetic factors and cytoplasm in differentiation, non-cell factors affecting genes during differentiation, nutrition of the embryo, intercellular interactions during organ formation. |
