Course objectives
Special course for students with pronouns of advanced measurement methods utilizing the principle of induced chlorophyll fluorescence in vivo. At the end of the course students will be able to choose and apply an appropriate method of measurement in the photosynthesis research, an indication of plant stress, plant ecophysiology, plant ecology, plant survival in extreme environments.
Syllabus
  • Lectures will cover the following topics chlorophyll fluorescence in vivo: (1) History of chlorophyll fluorescence methods, applications in science and education (2) Physical principles of chlorophyll fluorescence (3) Structure and function of photosystem II and thylakoid membrane systems redoxníxch chloroplast (4) Temperature curve of chlorophyll fluorescence (5) Fluorescence induction curves (6) Parameters derived from chlorophyll fluorescence induction curves   (7) Absorption and fluorescence emission curves (8) Chlorophyll fluorescence imaging - the basics (9) Chlorophyll fluorescence imaging - a modern application (10) chlorophyll fluorescence as an indicator of stress at the cellular and organ level (11) Fluorescence of chlorophyll in combination with other biophysical methods (12) Current trends in modern chlorophyll fluorescence techniques
