• BIOL 322: Plant Res Envir Stress

  0.00 Credits

  East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania

  
  As plants are developing and reproducing they are often subjected to environmental stress, which can be quite severe. Temperature extremes, drought, flooding, unavailability of nutrients, toxic minerals, and airborne pollutants are examples of such stress factors. This course deals with the symptoms of stress and the mechanisms by which some plants overcome these problems. Lab exercises provide experience in applying appropriatemethods to the study of stress effects and plant responses.
