Photosynthesis Course
This course builds expertise in photosynthesis mechanisms from pigments and light reactions to the Calvin cycle, alongside hands-on training in experimental design, gas exchange measurements, fluorescence techniques, and data analysis for reliable interpretation of plant light responses in biological and greenhouse settings.

What will I learn?
Gain a strong foundation in light-dependent reactions, Calvin cycle, pigments, and photoreceptors, then advance to practical skills in measuring photosynthesis, designing experiments, analysing data, planning light treatments, conducting gas exchange and fluorescence tests, avoiding pitfalls, interpreting outcomes, and producing clear reports and figures.
Elevify advantages
