Prerequisite(s): Botany 327.
Also known as: (formerly Botany 441)

Botany 543

Plant Cell and Developmental Biology

Physiology, biochemistry, molecular and cellular aspects of plant growth and development. Emphasis on the coordinated regulation of gene expression, cell-cell communication, and signalling during development. Discussion on the methods used to study development, such as mutants of Arabidopsis and other model systems.
Course Hours: H(3-3)
Prerequisite(s): Biology 331 and Botany 303 or 321.
Notes: Offered during odd-even dated academic years. Enrolment in this course may be limited. See Program Details in the Faculty of Science section of this Calendar.

Graduate Courses

Enrolment in any graduate course requires consent of the Department. Only when appropriate to a student's program may graduate credit be received for courses numbered 500-599. 600-level courses are available with permission to undergraduate students in the final year of their programs.

Botany 633
