1. Know - the basics of molecular biology and systematics of plants and fungi within the framework of mandatory academic disciplines and teaching practices taught in previous years of study. 2. Be able - be able to identify botanical and mycological objects, know the basics of molecular biology in the scope determined by the academic disciplines taught in previous years of study. 3.

The discipline "Molecular Taxonomy of Plants" is a component of the block of professionally oriented disciplines "Plant Biology". The discipline is a basic biological discipline that deals with a holistic view of biodiversity, techniques for identifying biological objects by marker sequences of genomic DNA, obtaining, analyzing and editing chromatograms with sequencing results, clarifying the phylogenetic relationships of plant and fungal objects using molecular phylogenetic analysis techniques, determining the degree of differences between taxa based on molecular genetic markers.
