Plant biology and physiology (2011/2012)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
Module: FISIOLOGIA VEGETALE
-------
The course examines the principal physiological and molecular aspects of plant growth and development and the principal methods of nucleic acid analysis. The program includes water balance, xylematic and floematic transport, byosinthesis and action of phytohormones, photomorphogenesis, abiotic stress, secondary metabolism. The objective of the course is the acquisition of the theoretical fundamentals of plant physiology and plant biotechnolgy relevant for viticulture
Module: BIOLOGIA VEGETALE
-------
Program
Module: FISIOLOGIA VEGETALE
-------
Water transport in plants: chemical properties of water, water and solute transport processes.
Water balance of plants: movement of water in the soil, water absorption by roots, water and nutrient transport through the xylem, transpiration and stomatal movements, control of stomatal opening. Water stress: physiological responses to drought.
Photosynthesis: general concepts of light reactions and carbon reactions. Starch and sucrose synthesis. Translocation in the phloem: phloem loading and unloading, the sink-source concept, allocation and partitioning of phosynthates.
Growth and development: cell wall and cell expansion. Embryogenesis, root and shoot development, senescence and programmed cell death. Control of flowering.
Photomorphogenesis: phytochrome, phytochrome responses, cellular and molecular mechanisms. Blu-light responses.
Phytohormones: biosynthesis, physiological effects and molecular modes of action of auxin, cytokinins, gibberellins, thylene, abscisic acid , brassinosteroids, polyamines, jasmonic acid.
Principal secondary metobolites.
Stress physiology: Responses to high and low temperatures, anoxia and salinity.
Structure and function of DNA and RNA. Isolation and purification of nucleic acids from plant cells and tissues. Hybridization of nucleic acids: Southern Blotting and Northern Blotting, DNA microarrays. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), RT-PCR and Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends (RACE). DNA sequencing. Enzymatic modification of nucleic acids and DNA cloning. Genetic transformation of plants. Examples of biotechnological applications in grape.

News for students
There you will find information, resources and services useful during your time at the University (Student’s exam record, your study plan on ESSE3, Distance Learning courses, university email account, office forms, administrative procedures, etc.). You can log into MyUnivr with your GIA login details: only in this way will you be able to receive notification of all the notices from your teachers and your secretariat via email and also via the Univr app.
Graduation
Attendance modes and venues
As stated in the Didactic Regulations, attendance is compulsory for practical and laboratory exercises (see courses with laboratory in the annex), unless otherwise stipulated by the teaching board.
Attendance at lectures is strongly recommended.
Part-time enrolment is permitted. To find out more, please consult the Part-time enrolment possibilities page.
The course's teaching activities take place in Villa Lebrecht and Villa Eugenia, located in the San Floriano di Valpolicella campus, and may also take place in the other spaces of 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 campus,
Lectures are held in the classrooms of Villa Lebrecht while practical exercises are carried out in the teaching laboratories dedicated to the various activities.
Overview of courses with laboratory.
The attached document specifies the courses, divided by year, that include exercise/laboratory CFUs: for this type of CFU only, attendance is compulsory in order to be admitted to the examination.
