Fall Term 2025 (1930)
PL SC 221 - Introduction to Plant Science
3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-3)
Principles of plant science for use in agriculture, forestry and environmental sciences. The course covers anatomical and physiological characteristics of vascular and non-vascular plants, including cellular structures, plant reproduction, development and growth, and key functions such as photosynthesis, and water and nutrient transport. The course emphasizes plant structure and function in the context of environmental conditions and genetic adaptation, essential for managed and natural ecosystems under environmental change. Not to be taken if credit received for BOT 205 or REN R 121.
