Biology: Plant Systematics and Diversity

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: BIOR96

<p>BIOR96</p><p>Molecular methods have revolutionized plant systematics during recent decades. Systematic information is becoming increasingly web-based, accessible for anyone who knows how to find it and make use of it. This course intends to update and deepen the participants’ knowledge with respect to the diversity, phylogeny and systematics of ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms. The participants will get an overview of modern morphological terminology. We discuss theories and models based on molecular phylogenies, such as APGIII, the modern classification system of angiosperms. Internet-based tools are introduced and tested. The angiosperm families are presented with special emphasis on cultivated representatives.</p><p>https://www.biologyeducation.lu.se/education/courses/advanced-level-courses/plant-systematics-and-diversity-bior96</p>
