Università Roma Tre

The course of "Botany and plant conservation" aims to provide basic knowledge on the morpho-functional organization of plant organisms, including fungi and to introduce the student to plant systematics and evolutionary aspects of the Plant Kingdom with particular reference to both prokaryotes and eukaryotes and fungi. The course also aims to provide knowledge about the distribution of plants and the competence for monitoring and conservation of plants. Finally, the course aims to provide a broad overview of the various implications that Botany has in other fields.
The expected results of the course include the acquisition of theoretical and methodological skills, i.e. knowing how to recognize taxa using classical analytical keys and modern digital ones, how to apply sampling and data collection techniques, use of microscope and stereomicroscope.
