- Course objectives
- Plant cytology and anatomy is the most basic and necessary subject to learn for students and young scientists in plant biological areas including plant physiology, taxonomy, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, biotechnology, agronomy, forestry and ecology, because plant anatomical structures determine morphological and functional features of the plant.
- Syllabus
- Plant cytology: Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Plant cell structure and function. The importance of compartmental organization. Protoplasmic and nonprotoplasmic components of plant cell. The nucleus, plastids, mitochondria. Cytoplasm. Endomembrane system: endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, microbodies (glyoxisomes, peroxisomes), vacuoles. Membranes, models of membrane components of plant cell. Relationships of endomembranes. Semiautonomic organelles: mitochondria, sites of respiration and chloroplasts, sites of photosynthesis. The origin of eukaryotes: endosymbiotic hypothesis. Ribosomes. The cytoskeleton: microtubules,, microfilaments. Movement in cell. The cell surface: cell wall, apoplasmic free space. Intercellular junction. Plasmodesms and symplast. The cell cycle: mitotic (M) phase and interphase (G1, S and G2 phases). The division of cell nucleus - amitosis, mitosis, phases of mitosis, the mitotic spindle; meiosis, comparison of mitosis and meiosis. The cell division - cytokinesis, control of cell division. Cell elongation and differentiation.
- Histology: Types of plant cells and tissues. Simple and complex tissues. Tissue systems: meristems, epidermal, water-conducting and ground tissues, their structure and functions.
- Organology: Anatomy of a flowering plant. Primary structure of vegetative organs - root, stem, leaf. Indeterminate plant growth. Primary tissues of roots: stele (radial vascular bundle), root cortex, endodermis, rhizodermis. Primary growth of roots, root tip and root cap. Pericycle and production of lateral roots. Root hairs. Primary tissues of stems: primary growth of shoots. Terminal bud, shoot tip and leaf primordia. Turn of vascular bundles to colateral ones in hypocotyll. Anatomy of leaf: mesophyll, epidermis with guard cells, venation. Comparison of monocots and dicots. Secondary growth: lateral meristems - vascular and cork cambium. Secondary tissues of stems, heteroxylic and homoxylic secondary xylem. Cork, phelloderm, periderm. Secondary tissues of roots, specific foundation of vascular cambium in root stele. Location of primary and secondary xylem.
