Learning outcomes
The course aims to provide students with the knowledge needed to understand the organization and operation of an autotrophic organism and the consequences of autotrophy metabolism s (as opposed to mixotrophy and heterotrophy).
The course has two modules called "Plant Physiology" and "Catalysis of autotrophic biosynthesis".
The "Plant Physiology" module provides the basics of functions that allow the plant life in unicellular and multicellular organisms, including the absorption of solutes, the transport of water and organic and inorganic substances, the perception of environmental signals, integration of internal and external signals with the mechanisms that control the development of the plant and its reproduction or vegetative growth. The classic themes of plant physiology will be especially extended to single-celled photosynthetic organisms that live in the aquatic environment.
Program
Plant Physiology :
Photosynthetic organisms
The plant cell
Water management in plant cells
Biological membranes and transport of the solutes
Physiology of the acquisition of mineral nutrients
Translocation in the phloem
Cell wall in plants
Seed formation and germination
Perception and signal transduction
Plant hormones
Phytochrome
Cryptochrome
Cell motility
Catalysis form of autotrophic biosynthesis :
Photosynthetic organisms for the production of biodiesel , biohydrogen and biogas
Microalgae and production of carotenoids and omega - 3
Examples of bio-refineries for the exploitation of waste water

Attendance modes and venues
As stated in the Didactic Regulations, there is no generalised obligation of attendance. Individual lecturers are, however, free to require a minimum number of hours of attendance for eligibilitỳ for the profit exam of the teaching they teach. In such cases, attendance of teaching activities is monitored in accordance with procedures communicated in advance to students.
Part-time enrolment is permitted. Find out more on the Part-time enrolment possibilities page.
The course's teaching activities take place in the Science and Engineering area, which is composed of the buildings of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2, Ca' Vignal 3 and Piramide, located in the Borgo Roma cluster, and Villa Lebrecht and Villa Eugenia located in the San Floriano di Valpolicella cluster.
Lectures are held in the classrooms of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2 and Ca' Vignal 3, while practical exercises take place in the teaching laboratories dedicated to the various activities.
