Systematic and plant geobotanics 2600-SGBIOL-1-S1

The course is implemented in the form of lectures and laboratory exercises.
Lectures will cover the following topics: history of taxonomy and its connections with other fields of knowledge; principles of modern taxonomy, plant taxonomy and related groups traditionally classified as plants; contemporary knowledge about the emergence and evolution of these organisms; their interrelationships; role in different parts of the world and ecosystems; characteristics of cyanobacteria, various groups of algae, green algae and telome plants, such as psilophytes, bryophytes, ferns, nude and angiosperms as well as their evolutionarily, ecologically and economically important representatives (origin, primary and contemporary occurrence of crop plants); ranges of plant species occurrence and their participation in plant communities, current trends of flora transformation and human impact.
Laboratory exercises are aimed at transferring knowledge and facilitating its understanding about the main groups of plants and mechanisms of development of the plant world. They include 6 thematic sections on basic issues concerning the review of the most important systematic groups of living plant organisms (algae, bryophytes, ferns, Nose and angiosperms), adaptations in morphological and anatomical structure to habitat conditions.

Learning outcomes - knowledge

W1: characterizes the principles of the taxonomic division of the world of plants, defines biological concepts associated with the basic features anatomical and morphological structure important as criteria for taxonomic division of plants K_W02, W2: describes the life cycle stages characteristic of individual taxonomic groups of plants K_W06, K_W07 W3: compares taxonomic features of individual groups of plants K_W14

Learning outcomes - skills

U1: uses basic knowledge of general botany, plant physiology and biochemistry to describe the evolutionary adaptations of the anatomical and morphological structure of individual taxonomic groups of plants K_U01 U2: uses the basic techniques of microscopy, scientific documentation and collection of herbarium materials necessary to identify individual systematic groups of plants K_U10 U3: prepares basic preparations using available biological material, prepares drawings of preparations microscopic and fresh and herbarium specimens K_U10 U4: identifies the systematic affiliation of vascular plants based on the K_U09 keys U5: demonstrates the ability to use basic literature sources in the field of general and systematic botany K_U14, K_U16
