Course content
The discipline studies the physiological functions of the plant organism under the influence of various natural and anthropogenic factors and contributes to the understanding of the mechanisms of adaptation of plants to adverse environmental factors, which reveals the possibilities of management production process of phytocenoses in order to create a theoretical basis for rational use and protection of flora.
