classify particular taxa of described organisms in natural system;
characterize particular groups, describe their characters and life processes;
understand evolutionary consequences among particular groups.
Syllabus
  • Basic survey of the groups of organisms, assessment of phylogenetic relations. Taxonomic units, methods of classification.
  • Prokaryota: classification of cyanobacteria in recent system. Eukaryota: endosymbiotic origin of the semiautonomous organelles. Overview of the whole system of eucaryotic organisms, division to kingdoms, relationships.
  • Survey of the particular divisions of cyanobacteria algae, fungi and "fungi-like organisms", their classification on lower levels: classes and orders. Basic characteristics, their function in the ecosystems, their importance. Recent opinions to the position of the mentioned groups in the system of all organisms (different kingdoms).
  • 1. Cyanobacteria.
  • 2. isolated groups of unicellular algae: Chlorarachniophyta, Euglenophyta.
  • 3. isolated autotrophic groups of kingdom Chromalveolata: Dinophyta, Cryptophyta, Haptophyta.
  • 4. autotrophic Chromalveolata (continued): Heterokontophyta (Chrysophyceae, Synurophyceae, Xanthophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Phaeophyceae).
  • 5. phylogenetic basis of kingdom Plantae, subkingdom Biliphytae: Glaucophyta, Rhodophyta.
  • 6. Plantae, subkingdom Viridiplantae, clade Chlorophytae: Chlorophyta (Prasinophyceae, Ulvophyceae and related classes, Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyceae).
  • 7. Plantae, subkingdom Viridiplantae, clade Streptophytae: Charophyta (Klebsormidiophyceae, Charophyceae and related classes, Zygnematophyceae).
  • 8. kingdom Amoebozoa: Mycetozoa, isolated groups of similar ameboid organisms: Acrasida, Plasmodiophorida.
  • 9. heterotrophic Chromalveolata: Labyrinthulomycota, Peronosporomycota (Oomycota), Hyphochytriomycota.
  • 10. kingdom Opisthokonta, phylogenetic basis of subkingdom Fungi: Chytridiomycota, Blastocladiomycota.
  • 11. Fungi (continued): basic characteristics of "eumycetous fungi", Zygomycota, Glomeromycota.
  • 12. Fungi (continued): Ascomycota (Taphrinomycotina, Saccharomycotina, Pezizomycotina).
  • 13. Fungi (continued): artificial groups Deuteromycota and Lichenes.
  • 14. Fungi (continued): Basidiomycota (Pucciniomycotina, Ustilaginomycotina, Agaricomycotina).
