About the course

Plant biology involves the scientific study of plants, fungi, and algae. These organisms are essential for maintaining Earth's atmospheric and environmental conditions, supporting all life. They provide the primary basis for human and animal nutrition, as well as resources like pharmaceuticals, timber, paper, and clothing.Plants are increasingly utilized for renewable energy and biofuels, playing a key role in efforts to combat climate change. Enhancing their practical and economic applications depends on a better understanding of metabolic and developmental processes and their environmental interactions.
