Photosynthesis Course
This course equips you with in-depth knowledge of photosynthesis mechanisms from pigments to the Calvin cycle, alongside hands-on skills in experimental design, gas exchange and fluorescence measurements, and data analysis for evaluating plant light responses in biological and greenhouse settings. Delve into photobiology fundamentals and apply them through robust trials using LED lights, IRGA systems, and PAM fluorometry to yield reliable, interpretable outcomes for research applications.
