INTRODUCTION TO MODULE
Review the effects of abiotic environmental interactions on plant physiology
9  cards
ENVIRONMENTAL DEFICIENCIES
Describe the role of essential nutrients and the effect of their deficiency on plants. Explain plant adaptations and acclimations to deficiencies i light, oxygen and essential nutrients.
15  cards
ABIOTIC STRESS
Describe direct and indirect injuries caused by abiotic stresses. Explain the molecular basis of stress damages on proteins, membranes and DNA.
20  cards
ACCLIMATIONS TO ABIOTIC STRESS (1)
Describe morphological and physiological acclimations to abiotic stress. Explain how cellular acclimation enhances avoidance and tolerance to heat and water stress.
14  cards
ACCLIMATIONS TO ABIOTIC STRESS (2)
Explain the processes used for reactive oxygen species scavenging. Describing specific acclimations to challenging environmental conditions.
11  cards
SIGNALLING PATHWAYS OF ABIOTIC STRESS RESPONSES (1)
Describing the major messengers involved in signalling pathways underlying the acclimation to abiotic stresses. Explain the mechanisms underlying signal transduction in plants. Discuss the methods used to unravel stress signalling pathways.
10  cards
SIGNALLING PATHWAYS OF ABIOTIC STRESS RESPONSES (2)
Explain the different systems used by plants to perceive stressful conditions. Identify which messengers are essential in the signalling pathways of different abiotic stresses.
11  cards
ADAPTATION
Describe examples of species adapted to dry, hot, saline, and cold environments. Explain how certain types of adaptations can mitigate the strain on the plant of stressful abiotic conditions.
