Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Know the patterns of adaptation of plants to various biotic and abiotic factors. 2. To be able to observe the growth and development of plants in natural ecosystems, artificial phytocenoses, urban landscapes, to analyze the basic morphological, physiological reactions of plants depending on environmental conditions. 3.

Course content
The discipline "Adaptation of ornamental plants" is a discipline of free choice of students, which provides students with a system of knowledge on stress tolerance of biological systems, focused on elucidating the mechanisms of plant resistance to different types of biotic and abiotic stressors, characterizes stress impact. Studies the mechanisms of plant response to: water stress in case of drought or flooding; temperature stress in the case of low and high temperatures; chemical stress in case of heavy metal pollution.
