Course content
|
Student will get key word corresponding with the topic. Based on the key words, students will find a study recent research articles (max. 5 years old). The topic will ne discussed , so the students and lecturer will discuss the information (based on their previous homework study) about the topic. Next week, the lecturer will have a talk about the topic. For a good contribution to the discussion, the student will get one point. There will be five discussion meetings. Selected topics 1) Influence of light on ability of plants to tolerate cold stress 2) Light and plant sensitivity to drought 3) Influence of light on plant sensitivity to salinity 4) Light and plant tolerance to osmotic stress
