Course content

1) Role of light and phytohormones in plant growth and development: Properties and localization of phytochromes, cryptochromes and phototropins; plant responses induced by red and blue light; cellular and molecular mechanisms of photoreceptor functions for red and blue light. 2) Signaling pathways of plant hormones: Transduction of signals of auxin, cytokinins, brassinosteroids, abscisic acid, gibberellins, ethylene, jasmonic and salicylic acid; structures of receptors and other elements of signaling pathways; final growth and developmental responses induced by hormones. 3) Interaction of signaling pathways of light and hormones during plant growth: Light influence on level of endogenous hormones, on the amount and activity of receptors; common elements of signaling pathways for light and hormones.
