Lecture 1
How does single cell develop into a complex multicellular plant and how do you get differences between plant forms (diversity)?
37  cards
Lecture 2
How do plant cells know what to develop into?
28  cards
Lecture 3
How do different parts of a plant signal to each other to co-ordinate plant growth and development and respond to stimuli
41  cards
Lecture 4
Hormone function to co-ordinate plant development as well as responses to the environment. Genetic studies, mainly in Arabidopsis, have led to a greatly improved knowledge of genes involved in hormone perception and response
49  cards
All hormones
What is the chemical nature of auxin,
Where is auxin synthesized,
How is auxin transported
28  cards
Lecture 5
How do plants perceive and respond to light stimuli? Plants have several receptor pigments that perceive light and control behavior and development. They do this partly by regulating gene expression.
43  cards
Lecture 6
Plants weigh up internal and external signals to decide whether to flower or not. One signal is daylength which plants can measure and this controls photoperiodic flowering. Plants use genes , light signals, circadian clock to control their flowering.
33  cards
Lecture 7
Most plants are sessile (sitting) - they stay in one location for their lifetime. They have developed a complex set of responses to environmental changes that enhance survival and reproductive success.
